D-ring tabs are usually pull points. If your installing them you'd want them tied into the structure (solid bumper, subframe, etc).
Not sure how you'd do that with just plates and tabs.

In that case just purchase some 3/8th plate and....crap. You don't weld....
I'm sure someone out there could make that for you. JCR sells the plates separate from their bumpers, it may work...

Do they have to be d-rings? Rugged Ridge makes a tow hook mount set that lets you keep your stock bumpers and everything.

Yes...lots of folks have made something real similar to the picture posted....
However since the OP says he has no ability to weld, thats gonna be a challenge...
