After some a stolen car was dumped into my van breaking most of the mounting points on the GRP rear bumper I gave up looking for a decent value replacement and fitted a new steel one.  Knock on effect is it has revealed some rust on the back rear lower corner...

I'm not particularly worried form a structural perspective, my plan was to clean up and paint for time being to prevent it getting worse, but any thoughts/experiance on if this is likely to be an MOT issue?

That’s a pretty localised and easy repair as it stands, it’s not mot from a structural point of view but it is from a sharp edges point of view, tape over it and it will pass

Had a car fail due to a hole about that size in a door, tester said a kid could put their finger in and cut themselves! Bit of duct tape, jobs a good'un.

Tape it is, thanks!

For longer terms repairs, fibre glass matt the inside of the hole if accessible and then filler on the outside, preparation of the areas is essential for a good finish, not concourse but does the job.
