A vehicle bumper assembly includes a reinforcement beam and a crush can that has a front portion attached to the reinforcement beam. An extension member is attached to an end portion of reinforcement beam. The extension member has a front face that is disposed at a rearward angle relative to an impact face of the reinforcement beam. An impact brace extends between the extension member and a rear portion of the crush can. Upon undergoing a frontal impact, the impact brace supports the extension member to reduce the rearward angle between the front face of the extension member and the impact face of the reinforcement beam, such as to provide a generally homogeneous contact surface at the impacted mass with the front face of the extension member and the impact face of the reinforcement beam.
