Take the recess + about 5 cm round the recess.

Weld (poly) it with fiberglass vinyl and liquid poly.
Straighten everything with poly.

Easy to say, but it takes a lot of time 2 get it like this.
Most of the time is smoothening

I used 3 bumpers
1 recess of the corsa C
2 original rear corsa B bumper
3 reiger rear.

that won't be the problem.

The smootening will be your worst nightmare

Just be sure that the sides you are going to bond are not smooth but gravelly

Hope you understand me (opposite of smooth)

Be sure you'll get one with the lights of the recess and cable.

Take one who is broken on the sides (much cheaper)
