Well since you asked... I'm in Baton Rouge this weekend getting the "Incognito" mounted up, as dubbed by the @THeGeNTLeMaN. Today was very productive fitting it up and adjusting as needed. Not that there were any doubts but I've been thoroughly impressed by Catlin's work. And, it's been great to finally meet in person and chat while he works his magic. Tomorrow he'll finish welding it together and throw some black primer on there to keep the rust off. A few small things to finish up then we'll mount/wire the winch and stick a form in it!

I know I'm probably gonna burn in hell for posting a pic of a rover on a yota forum but I'm gonna burn for other things anyways so why not lol. But what if the fairlead was flush with the bumper cover...? Ideas, again just thinking out loud.

Why? I'm curious, I'm OK with it either way, but if you wouldn't mind sharing your insight... BTW I think it turned out great and I like how the tow hooks appear to be removable so I don't have them all the time if I don't need them ie daily basis, but could be put on for a weekend trip ect.

Thank you guys ...
 
Perfect! Seriously. Great job.

Now I just need to let my bank account replenish after the Christmas season. I'll probably wait so you can design the stealth rear bumper and tire carrier so they can be shipped together cheaper.

Looks like the winch ended up in the perfect spot. Great job. Has me almost wishing I didn't go with an ARB bumper up front....

Any pics of the mount itself without the bumper back on yet? Just curious.

Not yet we wanna keep those things under wraps for now ... so we don't have to worry about copy cats and what not ...but you will be able to see the product before purchase around the official release date
