Bought my repop rear bumper from them 3-4 years ago. I agree they're not quite as heavy as originals but for my, "better-to-look-mahvelous-than-BE-mahvelous" truck it's been fine. I painted the back sides of my bumpers with Rustoleum hammertone paint, two coats and you don't pick up the surface rust.

PS: I use The Car & Truck Shop because they're relatively local to me and I only deal with the counter men/women. They've always been nice, no problems. But I've read a number of complaints about ordering from them. Just a head's up, not my experience but someone oughta tell you. Best, Dan
