Expedition One Bumper vs. ARB

Does anyone have any experience with how the Expedition One bumper compares with the ARB bumper? I see that Expedition One is one of the very few to offer aftermarket bull bumpers for the new Defender but I hadn't heard of them before. I know ARB even has a special testing facility to test the crash worthiness of their bull bumpers and tests them against a mannequin that measures and weighs the same as a kangaroo to simulate a head on collision with a kangaroo (since it's Australia). Is Expedition One similar to ARB, or is Expedition One for looks amd less for utility?

I only have ARB experience. I have their more classic design on my LR3 and their newer design (for crash-worthiness requirements) on my LR4. I love them both but the install was a bit of work. 2 people are a must for a smooth install.
