I agree, brass would be good for two reasons - add balast and more durable but the design may be worth consideration. I just have a feeling the car could turn into a small plough with the brass bumper as a direct replacement.
How about a two piece configuration that has a skidplate bolt into a replacement bumper and use the current holes in the chassis that are there for the rear diff housing to keep the leading edge of the skid plate in place. The only issue I can see doing it this way is the screws for the diff housing would need to be longer.
All this has to take into account of when you need to adjust motor mesh etc so a skid plate and rear bumper needs to be easy to remove.
