Make it stick out like this (or about 3-5 inches):



Then modify it later on for the winch. Thats what I plan on doing with mine. I also place on cutting up my grille to set the winch back further.

what you could do is make a bumper that just sits flat with the front of the bumper and then when you get winch fab a plat that sticks out and gusset it up and there you go
