If you build something, build it right. Any job, big or small, do it right, or not at all.
What if he used it and it snapped? that could really ruin somebody's day. Safety first!
The bumper does look good. Clean and simple = a great combination. But I would address that problem NOW.

if i were you i would swap it out now while its easy, there are many things you can do to make those stronger, and any of them i would recommend over leaving it as is.

X3....their could be an os situation where that bumper was put to the test....I've always beefed up any recovery point...it could be as simple as drilling a couple holes and thru-bolting as an added measure
