I'm trying to ID a bumper I just got. I believe it to be from a 60-66 Bug, but I'm not familiar enough with them to know for sure.
The bumper is 55 inches tip to tip and the 12 1/2 bow at the middle. It's aftermarket, but I don't recognize the Logo.
Any ID/info would be appreciated.

Here is the logo stamp

Is it just the angle the photo is taken from ? the left over-rider bar looks like '67 only.

looks like a nice German bumper TBH, a few more backside photos would help

Here are a couple more shots. I appreciate your help.

This is perhaps a better angle of the override/towel rack area

And her is a wider shot of the back, in the area that the logo stamp is.
