Any ideas?

Well. This is a bit out there. But if you want to use that bumber sometimes. Then the winch another. Make a addition that fits snugly up to the one that's on it, and put tie in points on the sides and bottom. If you don't want that bumper with the winch, unpin it and drop it off.

although that is quite an idea, i was looking more for something that might wield to my current. just something that protects more of my grill, and i can put a winch mount on somehow.

So the blue is pipe. And the red is the bumper. If you tie it in like that, it will probably look nice. And I have not figured out the winch yet. I will also add another pic in a few minuets.

Do it! I like the idea of being able to take it off. I'm doing something like that - the stinger.
