    Hidden Winch Mount Specialists and Rough Country 9500LB with synthetic line. Install was very easy and quick, jigsaw made cutting the bumper easy.

    Winch and mount weighed in at 107.1LBS. The stock aluminum bumper was just over 10LBS so the winch and mount only added 97 LBS and no need to get heavier front springs!

    Looks great! Did the license plate bracket come with the bumper kit or was that something you bought separate?

    I like it, looks great! I’d like to hear about the flip tag frame too. I went with the US Off-road version, wouldn’t mind lowering the tag.E1CBEDF3-FC32-4042-B8E6-B9486A89487A.jpg

    The Tuffy flip up license plate holder, I modified it, cut it down a tad so it was snug against the top of the fairlead.

    Very clean. I am torn between doing something like this or a high clearance front bumper. The OEM post-facelift bumper I think looks better than most aftermarket bumpers anyways.
