I have noticed that none of jeff's new cars have them, but i'm sure his opinion is the same as mine after his son drug the bumper to the 330 and made a move towards the wall in houston. If your going to leave that hard, bars help keep everyone safe. Either way it seems like a poor choice of things to enforce.
