Abstract
A bumper for vehicles, particularly motor vehicles, includes a dimensionally stable member and an elastic covering forming an end region of the vehicle body. At least one light respectively is inserted into laterally exterior receiving pockets of the covering and is held in position at the covering. The light has a light-transmitting covering element on the side facing the end region. It is provided that, on each covering element, a guard is provided locally which projects slightly with respect to the adjacent elastic covering and is constructed in one piece with the covering element. In the area of the guard, in the event of a 30° pendulum crash, the covering element is supported on a member structure of the vehicle body situated behind the covering element.
