Default Winch with factory brush guard?

I really don't like any of the aftermarket bumpers out there, I was curious, has anyone mounted a winch to a DII with the stock brush guard/push bumper on there?

Talkin about this stock bumper incase there are different ones from LR factory.

Almost looks like that one has a winch too actually...

A couple of companys made a hide away winch mount not real strong, did hide the winch but was makes for a bad approach angle. DAP used to sell one, might want to call them and see if they can help you.
The D1 in that picture did not have a winch mounted.

DAP is kind of over, company is for sale and they don't have many parts left.

Just called them, DAP was a distributor, it was actually the Bearmach part. They can still get them though in the meantime. He wasn't sure if they fit with the brushbar, so I emailed Bearmach. I'll post back if i find out for future seach button finders.

I do believe I remember seeing a picture of the DAP/Bearmach mount with a stockbrush guard. They had to shave a little off the side of it to clear the frame brackets. Pretty much just the thickness of the bracket material on each side.
