Most people use cardboard to make a template and then cut using those measurements. Very few of us use/have plans on paper with measurements. Also most companies arent going to release thier plans either..

You could always do what the Air Force/Northrop-Grumman did with the A-10...Get a winch, and design a whole bumper around it.
