But from the picture, I am not convinced that it has the same strength, it looks less robust.

It may be important to consider the possible safety implications of having a less strong bumper beam fitted.

I don't think anything could be as sturdy or durable as the volvo towbar , I have never seen anything so heavy and using such thick metal on a car before . Also the volvo one has a big piece of hard foam clipped onto the towbar beween bumper and towbar to absorb moderate impacts without damage . And it has been through the volvo crash test of course unlike the other copies .
