I bought this brand new brazilian slash cut style rear bumper for my Crossover and started to modify it to fit. I removed the inner mountings (these newer bumpers mount differently to our EB's) and cut the square holes in the correct place that only the '72 crossers use. I've not cut the holes in the corners. Then I managed to get hold of a genuine '72 bumper so this is surplus.
It would fit other EB's but you would have to weld up the mounting holes and drill new ones/file square as I did.
The little cutout you can see is on the underside, this is as it came from VW.
Its got overspray and a couple of scuffs from the garage so needs paint, I've also shown a picture of it next to an OG '72 bumper, its a little narrower but this is obviously how the come from VW Brazil.
It cost me £129 from VW Heritage, yours for £50 collected, I'm at Gatwick.
