W123 sedan under rear bumper panel

G'day Folks,

I've got a bit of a tricky repair I'd like to do on my W123 sedan under the rear bumper. The panel on my car has been repaired just above the exhaust - which I guess is a common rust area - but the rest of the panel has been left in a somewhat battered state. Previous drivers have been bumping into stuff...



And here is an along the length underneath shot



Does anyone happen to have a similar picture of a (nearly) perfect panel like the second shot shown above?

I think I know which bit to bash - but I'd like to make sure first!

Don't leave that there - I'll take it to bits!
