I dont have an artistic bone in my body, so this is simple,
Here is the rear I did on my 93 XJ, kinda pre-runner.

Here is the front on the same XJ, it just needs more tube to make the corners stronger. The winch plate IS SOLID!

what are some options on where to put that round tube thing that sits inside the stock bumper?

Mine is tucked up behind/kinda inside the front passenger side of the bumper. Bumper is from C-Rok (NICE STUFF). We also made a small skid plate that is coming off my bumper to protect the plastic can from getting tagged with a rock or branch. You can relocate the can it if need be. I just found it was easy to leave it appox in the same location.
