I don't know that what you are looking for exist...
but a lot of people trim the bumpers... or you could get a new, snub nose bumper.

All you need is 2 screws. I forget what size they are but it's the standard size that is just a hair smaller than M3 and threads into the bumper posts nicely which gives the bumper a more rigid mount than stock.

I used to steel mounting plates from menards. I cut the lexan bumper off my cherokee and now my actual bumper fits really well and is much higher.

did you see this vid?
Honcho Front Bumper Modification & Rear Bumper Axial SCX10 trail TR Hop-Ups - YouTube

the front bumper lift begins at 3:00 It uses a dingo bumper which I just ordered from ebay. I like what he does in the video because it brings the bumper back almost even with the scx frame. Even though I raised my bumper I was still hitting quit a bit and getting hung up just because it's still way out in front. I'll be modifing or making a new bracket when the honcho bumper comes in.

Or do like me trace or print the part and make it yourself after getting your measurements from hole to hole right. All that's left is to fabricate it. I usually measure my bumper hole then zoom my screen till I have that exact measurement then I fabricate it I did it with my honcho when I made the highlift kit.

THIS works just fine,did the same thing to mine but added a small steel spacer in the old mounting hole the screws were crushing the mount closed. plenty of clearance now.
