The hoop isn't heavy at all... now i dont have anything out of the boxes but it does seem the front is heavier than the back!
The bumper has the winch plate builtin. You do have to get a kit if you're using certain warn winchs.

As far as license plate bracket, if you are going to mount a winch, you can make a removeable fairlead mount using Maglight mounting brackets for less than $10.00. I am on the road this week, but will post some quick pictures in this thread on Friday for you.
