Cannot see that a soft a bar will save much in an accident they are mainly for show, the a bar will just push into front of vehicle causing further damage, may be of use in a parking shunt at 2-3 mph but not much else,
I think you might be surprised how much it would spread the force of an impact ...it doesn't push into the vehicle as it is mounted directly onto the front crossmember so it would act as a big rubber buffer (and it has a solid core)
