Looks good. Make sure you get a cover for it to protect the line

Just get a Superwinch epi9.0 cover. A little tight, but it does fit

I just received my winch today and installed on my LoD shorty. I came to the forums to see how everyone else's looked after install, kind of a way of doublechecking my work, and I found this thread. I mounted mine in the holes that were already in the bumper, and I see how there is concern about the winch doesn't center, but it's only off by >1 inch? Is the concern around aesthetics or safety? I would think that with the fairlead there to prevent any rough edges on the line that it would all be ok?

I had the same problem with my bumper. I personally didn't like the look of the bumper not being centered so I drilled my own holes in the plate. But to answer your question, it won't cause any issues if you mount it offset
