A tow bar to the rest of us!

Has anyone got a tow bar fitted to their urq?
Is it the genuine Audi article?
If so, can it be fitted without cutting bits out of the rear bumper?

I have acquired one that has a detachable ball hitch that can simply be locked in place when needed. It carries the Audi UK Identification plate with all the towing weights on it. It also has the manufacturers plate on it with he following figures:

Type: 305 - 051  Ausr.D
Bauj: 30/86
Prutz: F3516
Stutzlast: 75

The bits that came with it say it is for the Audi Coupe quattro turbo. It has a large plate, curved at one end that fits inside the boot and curves up the rear valence withe the main mounting bracket fitting on the outside.

Does anyone have one of these fitted and if so does the bumper have to be cut. If it does I won't be fitting it.

I have to say it looks a wonderful piece of engineering and must have cost a fair bit when new.

Any information gratefully received.

Many thanks
