Given step file is convert into CAT and given bumper model taken as CLASS A SURFACE

TOOLING AXIS
EXTRACT A SURFACE

TAKE TOOLING AXIS AS NORMAL TO SURFACE

DRAFT ANALYSIS
The Draft Analysis command enables you to detect if the part you drafted will be easily removed. This type of analysis is performed based on color ranges identifying zones on the analyzed element where the deviation from the draft direction at any point, corresponds to specified values.
The draft analysis is done by clicking feature draft analysis or go to TOOLS>ANALYSIS>DRAFT ANALYSIS
on the bar select the compass and place it on the tooling axis and lock the compass and click on the body
As u can see the body comes in GREEN in colour that ie angles are under 3 degree and ready to draft

CLASS B CREATION
we can easily off set the CLASS A by 2.5 mm and create class B surface
Work on the patches and make b surface

CLASS C CREATION
Extract the boundary from the class A surface using boundary command.
Use sweep command > choose profile type line > subtype as with draft direction > choose guide curve and draft direction > draft angle as 3 degree > preview

Join body A and C

After class C creation Join Class A and Class C and trim it between class B to get Final body

By moving to part body and using closed surface tool make a part body

Draft analysis on body as same as before
