Based on a tip from another member, I called to order my LoD Offroad mid-width, and they welded on the tabs while building the bumper and before the powder coating process. Turned out perfect.

Instead of the bumper, I use a Currie skidplate with blu ox tabs. You should be able to use after market bumpers over this skid plate, but you have to make sure from the manufacturers that it will work with it....

Mine is mounted to the frame below my ARB deluxe bumper.
My father in laws (Dune Sahara) are mounted to where the tow hooks go on his Smittybilt.

Late to the party, but you should check out the RockHard4x4 front bumper. I purchased it specifically as the tow points mount directly to the frame. Works and looks great!!

That looks great! I like that you are running the hex head bolts for both sets..
