Default bumper mounts

Broke down and bought a cgr the other day with a set of proline bumpers. I was wondering how you guys are mounting the bumpers. Pics would be nice, thanks....

I've monted mine a couple diferent ways since I built my rig here is the link! Hopefully this helps. The first way I did it was with some flat aluminum and some angled "L" shaped aluminum. I made a plate from the flat aluminum to bolt the bumper too then I basically drilled holes in the exhisting cross members. That proved to be waay to flexy for my liking specially using the winch so I added some angle alum. to trap the crossmember a little better but it still flexed too much then I did it the way it shows on my build that way is rock solid! I have broken the D-Ring mount off the back, and have scuffed the hell out of the front since now there is no give. Those bumpers aren't the strongest!
