I'm sure some of you guys have seen my posts about the big ugly euro bumpers we have over here. My thoughts are next time I go back to Canada trying to get my hands on a stock bumper and doing the stubby conversion.

My question to all the creative types: where/how could I mount the euro sized plate on that bumper effectively? I thought about zip tying to the grille but I can't bring myself to disgrace the sacred 7 slots...thoughts?

Does the plate have to be in the center?

Why not look at a flip-up type bracket like on the ARB winch bar?
