Not even ARB crash tests. Although they seem to imply that they crash test, the fact is they don't - and it is obvious if you read their site:
"ARB assesses each vehicle’s frontal crush characteristics and replicates the crush rate in the design of each air bag compatible bumper and mounting system. Using this method ensures that the vehicle’s crush rate and air bag triggering are not altered when a bumper is installed."
In other words, they look at crash tests that someone else did and spent some time deciding on how to design their bumpers - probably far more than other vendors.
