One other idea, if you are not interested in a winch, have factory fogs to reuse, and are willing to spend about $300, another option is given in the following link. It is a "midsize" and similar to shortening the factory bumper. But gives a substantial metal bumper, you don't see any seam, and I think visually more appealing. But, of course, there is more expense. So it is totally understandable if you go for a chop mod. I almost did, but my birthday was comming up and convinced my wife this was a great present.
