Rob,
the aluminium bar is in effect your crash impact piece. The rear plastic bumper will absorb minor dings it's the big metal bar behind that takes the larger ones. Not sure I'd have the confidence to remove it, in the event of a rear shunt it does offer some protection to your engine/exhaust etc.

To disconnect the wiring to the license plat lights, you need to remove the right rear tail light. Under it, there is an electrical connector for the license plate lights.
