Yep, I really don't really care that much I guess.
5 inch C channel. Bobbed just past the bumper. Maybe one of the Metal Tech noseguards to go with it. Anything else is just fluff.

2x6 box tube, 3/16th's works fine for my PTO.

Can't think of any reason this wouldn't work. Anyone else? The standard top mounted winch plate sits on it nicely. Never had a PTO installed on one but I'd like to see how it worked.
Made of 2x4 rectangle tube with heavy 1/4" walls and unique clevis mounts.
I can make any length you want add hoops and light tabs for you too like this.
PM me if you're interested.

BEEFY D-ring mounts! I can't see why that would not work. I will try to get a better pic of mine. Same idea as yours, just MUCH more ugly.
The bumper used has to be flat on top because the front of the winch structure that contains the cable rollers needs flat. The winch has to be centered to the left because the pto driveshaft comes through the large hole in the front crossmember. There's a bunch of mounting holes, and I THINK they'd take more flat are than the fairly skinny welded on flat bar of Hawkdriver's bumper. It might work though.
The PTO winch mounts on exising holes in both the OEM bumper and the frame. You might have wondered what some of those holes are for? The winch uses some of them.
An OEM bumper is the easiest solution. It's wide but can be cut to taste. Not as strong as some but it is 3/16" (or metric equivelant) so it's stronger than some too. Looks good and no figuring or 'adapting' required. Toyota still stocks it powdercoated (maybe GOOD paint?) pewter.
I'd have to go out to the shop to check whether a pto winch uses the triangular pieces for part of the mounting. After dinner maybe
