Re: bar code behind bumper
940084 is a lawnmower part (Briggs & Stratton) but reckon that may be red herring.
However the 'LH' in the suffix may indicate left-hand so could well be a sticker from a replaced panel. It isn't VW anyway.

Re: bar code behind bumper
Do you mean behing the end of the bumper? I found one too - you can just see it in this photo but obviously it's been sprayed over. It was yellow if I remember correctly...................

Why is there a spanner on the bumper bolt? One good fart and the entire bumper would fall off anyway!

Re: bar code behind bumper
It's the build sticker so they know what bits to fit on the track. You should recognise part of the top number.
