Don't have any good shots but it's 3x5" square tube. Bolts to the factory 8 locations plus ties in with the hitch. D ring mounts are solid stock and welded on the front and back side of the bumper, they go all the way through it. The hitch mount wasn't made for towing and the spare carrier is temporary and actually folds down so I can still get in the back but moves a little too much for my liking but works for now.

Need more pics
I think it'd look nicer if you painted the area behind the bumper black, or plate the bumper so you can't see through.
