Looks good, took some time to file out as it’s a small margin.

I love these types of threads... someone who'll chop up an expensive car to retrofit an OEM part - you have massive cahooners to attempt the job... great result!!
 
A new addition to the hitch as it’s very close.
We designed a protector, this is 3D printed carbon!
 
The lugs are Oriss as standard, it’s part of a system, bike racks and boxes etc.
My son is a design engineer, this is MK3 and works perfectly and folds with the hitch out of sight.
 
Update on this job.
I had missed the foam crash absorber and picked a new one cheap on eBay for £30.
I have been putting this job off for weeks but had issues with the rear wheel arch sticking out on the ends.
2 hour work so far, i have used Tiger seal on the ends, it’s not coming off again!
Just needs to set over night.EBA4D1D2-8E98-485E-8BF5-A12428A93F27.jpeg
