Pics of mine in my sig. Not done yet, need to add tube. However, I did mount a 16K winch in it.

Well thanks. I don't have a pic of it on, but I also made a bracket to bolt the license plate on, that the winch hook holds in place. When its on you can't tell there's a winch.

Re: lets see some custom 4x4 bumpers

In the winter I keep my truck off the salty roads but I do use it on the lake. I've been bolting this old bumper back on in the winter for that duty. I have a tendency to break through near shore so having the two seperate horizontal pieces is nice. The bottom one is resting on the ice/mud of shore. I put my hi-boy jack under the upper one and start lifting.

You could easily put a winch where the license plate is and move the license elsewhere.
