Default Front license plate on XRC comp Series winch?

I bought the Rugged Ridge Roller Fairland License Plate Mount since i have the RR stubby XHD bumper but i forgot that my XRC Comp Series Winch does use the fairhead, it uses a flat bracket. Does any one know how to make this work without drilling???

It must have some sort of fairlead. Do you mean it is synthetic and has a Hawse style instead of rollers?
If that's the case there are license plate brackets that fit those also.

I just clamped mine between the roller fairlead and the bumper. Im sure you could do the same with the hawse style fairlead...then again i dont care if my license plate looks bad, its all smashed up anyway.

Somebody on the forum has even made something at home that worked pretty well... don't remember exactly what it was though.
