   ye if you get a plate welded in and then as little filler as possible it shuld last a while as the fibreglass panel is said to crack over time and slide of gradually , so in the long run might be cheaper for metal weld becuase it will last longer. people usually fit the boot release popper or something which is like £15 on ebay and apparently really eaasy to fit. As for the number plate, thats a good question

   you could always customize a standard rear bumper, like mine
