ABSTRACT:
An automotive bumper system includes an impact bar, a fascia, and a collapsible support mounted between the impact bar and the fascia. The collapsible support includes a plurality of brace sections and a strut section between adjacent pairs of brace sections. During a collision, the strut sections flex inwardly, thereby pulling the fascia downwardly away from damageable components.
