Default Smittybilt XRC front bumper measurements?

I have a 2012 JKU and am looking at getting a new front bumper. I plan on getting the rear XRC with tire carrier and was looking at the front bumper with winch. Can anyone get me the length of that bumper tip to tip? It doesn't look like it is full length, but I cannot tell if it is a mid or not. Is anyone running the XRC Mod? How is the quality since that one you bolt on the lengths that you want? I don't like the shorty look, but am undecided if I want a mid or full length. Did you have to get some pump relocator bracket with it? How was the install. If you've got any pictures, that would be great too. Thanks!

Here's a few pics of my XRC, I can go get actual measurements if you want them. Hope it helps. Quality is great and install was straightforward with basic hand tools, just bit awkward due to the weight.

On a 12 you will need a relocation bracket or the new ones just have a cut out for the pump. It is a Shorty for sure. It stops about the inside of the fenders. Not stoked about mine anymore and will be selling for a full width

Edit: My JK is a 2010, I don't know how much the '12s have changed. You may have to contact Smitybilt to verify it will fit without hacking.

Hi there~can you please give me the exact measurement of the distance between the two pre drilled fairlead holes. I want to see if my license plate is wide enough to span it so i can mount it through those holes, since i won't be using a winch. Thanx!

Hi. How did you get your license plate mounted? Were you able to use the pre-drilled holes for the fairlead? Thanks!
