Quick wieght question - front/ Rear bumper

Does anyone know how much the front and/or rear bumper weights? I have been looking and maybe I'm just dumb but I cannot find it anywhere. Thanks in advance!

What for? I know the front doesn't weigh much at all, I would imagine the rear is the same.

Well, I was looking at some aftermarket bumpers but obviously I don't want to add weight haha.

I have an aftermarket Nismo and it is MUCH heavier than my OEM Sport bumper. If you are thinking about lightweight, def stick with OEM.

Yes- don't want to shackle your 3395lb car to an additional 5lbs. That would be like trying to go for a jog with ham sandwich in your pocket.

The difference between OE and aftermarket bumper isn't enough to be concerned about when discussing weight, buy only polyurethane and find one you really like!

In my opinion, negligible weight differences. They may weigh more but it's not going to be enough to notice any sort of performance increase or decrease depending on the weight.
