It came with the box of bits with the bike.
What you say now makes sense as the rear guard is not chrome so it would look odd. I’m annoyed that the supplier of the new guard, still advertising online, is describing its fitment for DT/RT 1, 2 & 3 models.
I’ve contacted them to see what they will do, hopefully I can return it.

The next thing is the rubber the bracket will sit on. You need the correct ones for your bike. There were basically two styles for the DTs and RTs. For your bike and the light you purchased (correct light) you need the thin rubber pad for the rear (2 holes) it is about 1/4 " thick. Then you need the extra thick grommet for the front (single hole). Some front ones take two different grommets combined to get the front up and rear down. With the correct rubbers your taillight should point back roughly parallel to the street. Using the wrong rubbers will have the light pointing more up than straight back.
