As standard a lot of cars have a metal bar under the plastic bumper you see, this is removed when the towbar is fitted. You may find you would also need to refit this metal bar/bumper if you remove the towbar.

Well I must say that unpainted pic looks like some old scrap iron parts hanging from the QQ. The painting is definitely a vast improvement, did you use “Hammerite” in the end ? - Dave 😉
