i cant make a rear bumper like yours because the portuguese mot.
we cant make the changes we want to our cars
for ex, car tunning is only allowed if we have the modifications in the car document, and its not cheap to do that.
and to get that in paper we must do a special mot that cost more than 100€, and not all mot centres can do that.

i want to make one like this, but not exactly like it

Is there any particular reason you can get away with the one above yet not one like mine?

i just want to make mine almost like the original one, or at least ill try it.
the one at the pic is just to show how in want to build the corners and to install rear light and number plate, but i want to extend it a bit more to the ground, and not exacly like the on at the picture.
mine as already the round corners to adjust at the rear door, and the on at the photo does not have that.
and i want to keep the original dimensions of the rear bumper

i bought it used and the lock is always locked.
i think that the problem of it, are the springs that aren't strong enough to unlock it
but i dont use the car as a daily driver, so thats ok with it
can someone help tell me the brand of it?
