Bumper Fab Suggestions

I'm probably going to end up getting my bumper(s) fabbed at Armorology or something. I like the look of the TJM T15 bumpers, but they don't seem to be made for the '85 4Runners. So I was bored at work today, just playing around with Photoshop (Yes, I have amazing drawing skills ), and I came up with something like this. Yes, it is very similar in looks to the T15, since I'm not very creative and I like the T15 like I said before. What do you guys think? Any suggestions?

(The white dots are lights of some sort, the grey box is the winch fairlead, there's some shackles, you can figure it out!)

Just tell Jed how many lights, what size winch, etc and let him do his thing for max approach angle and protection. Both Ric and Spindleshanks' bumpers are freaking awesome!

I know that nobody really cares...but here's a better hack job, using Zedex's bumper. I really like the design of it. Just imagine it in black powdercoated steel.
