I had a look when mine fell off - ended up making something out of mild steel and just bent it by hand to fit - hasn't fallen off and doesn't catch stones anymore so it must be ok

You could just glassfibre it in. It's never going to rust again.

It's looking like the bodyshop is just going to bond it in so no more rust

Dunno why it's separate in the first place, just something else to charge you for if someone bumps you - good one Honda.

It's separate because number plates are different sizes in different markets. Cheaper for Honda to use one mould design to manufacturer bumpers and modify bumper/use additional parts to enable UK/EU number plate fitment.
