The rear center (bumper) is the upper part between the tail lights bolted to the frame through rear quarter panels setting spacing for the engine deck lid and keeping quarter panels at same distance. Due to the fact that it has mounting tabs on each side the part is divided and made in 2 parts which then are bonded together into single part. Not exactly sure where the license plate to be located the rear ward facing surface was originally made flat. The cover also houses mechanical components to lift and lower the wing. Bottom has removable cover to protect mechanical and electrical components plus it acts as aerodynamic component to the flowing air.

When the 2 parts are made the "C" part has non gel coated flanges which are used as stiffening part to the piece and bonding surface to the top cover. They can be bonded with fiberglass adhesive or fiberglass resin it self and in the engine bay side the mating vertical sides are bonded with mat and resin to complete the sides. All edges are trimmed to as close as possible to 90' and covered with gel coat to hide the fiberglass strands so that they would not show through into the paint.
