on the base model mazdas, the rear bumper was an option, most just came with the black covers for the opening.....someone had some on e-bay a while back....the se-5's & le-5's came with a bumper as a part of their respective option packages, so if your truck didn't come with a bumper from the factory, they legally can't ticket you as a dealership couldn't sell an "unlawful vehicle"...although i'd say that you would have to show them a window sticker proving it to beat the wrap.
oh, also, good luck finding a hidden hitch....i couldn't find one any where...i went to the hidden hitch site (& various others), they don't show to make a model specific one anymore, so i just bought one for an rv that is adjustable, they came in two widths for different frame sizes 38"-48" & 48"-60" i think....anyhow it has the brackets to bolt it to the frame & you just cut off any excess on either side of the frame bracket....i didn't use the brackets otherwise the hitch would have hung below the roll pan, so i cut a small notch on the inside of each frame rail, & welded it to the frame @ the proper height to be behind the license plate, took the notch pieces & cut them to fit back onto the frame & welded it, so it looks as if it were factory & also ran a security bolt thru the frame & the hitch so there isn't any chance of it coming loose even if a weld were to break.
