what are you guys using for winch bumpers?

i've been looking at Buckstop Bumpers, but i'm not fond of how part of the grill gets covered. but i like the face the winch area is covered on top, they have a front receiver built in, and they have an option to make it wider for cut outs.

and i can't get myself to like the Road Armor/Alien Patrol bumpers because of the way they stick out wider than the fenders (they look ok with the huge grillguard... but i don't want that guard)

and whats out there for winch capable rear bumpers?

are Trail Ready bumpers made by the same company that makes Buckstop bumpers? they look VERY similar

If I get one, It would be the Buckstop or ARB. 2 things I don't like about the ARB, 1) is you need to trim the bottom of the grill if running a winch and 2) it doesn't have the front receiver hitch which I could see as sometimes being handy. Of course it is a good bit cheaper than the Buckstop.
