Building a winch bumper, Looking for some feedback

A bit of introduction. Pacific Fabrication is your one stop custom automotive fabrication shop that will satisfy all of your specialty automotive needs. Whether you're building a custom hot rod, a street car, or an off road vehicle, we have the tools and experienced staff to do a complete and professional job. We specialize in custom suspensions, race car fabrication, restorations, complete wiring harnesses, tube bending, and metal fabrication. We sell and install everything from a simple set of wheels and tires to lift kits, lowering kits, custom airbag systems all the way up to aftermarket superchargers, turn-key Chevrolet LS motors, and complementing LS swap parts.

We are currently prototyping a winch bumper for the 67-72 chevy trucks, blazers, and suburbans. Before we finalize the design we would like to get your feedback. Good or bad. Heres some pictures of the current bumper.





We would really like opinions on the sides.
option 1

option 2

option 3


-Its built to accept all of the warn winches, forward mount or bottom mount. Pictured with a 12k forward mount.
-Uses 2.5" round LED turn signals
-Cut outs for Square driving lights
-The center will be 1/4" steel for strength, the rest 1/8" to cut down on weight.
-Tow points for D-Rings integrated
-We are thinking about options as far as tube grill guards and headlight guards.
-No cutting of stock sheet metal or grill. Unless you want to, Then we will have an additional set of holes for you to tuck the bumper even farther back (likely around 1"-1.5").
-Should fit 2wd and 4wd trucks.


(yes this is being modeled on a 2wd. It will also be getting lifted in the front to level it out.) Oh and take a peak under the hood.
