On the big-bumper cars (USA and Canada primarily) there's a hefty aluminum beam behind the rubber pad, #3 in the illustration

On the slim-bumper cars there's a less substantial beam....probably aluminum but I' not sure about that

In either case there's nothing of substance along the sides.....where the chrome blades and rubber pads wrap around the sides of the car

Iv got mine apart at the moment and I'm pretty sure that it's steel. The steel beam under the rubber was rusted and I needed to replace it. Mine is a slim bummer
