New front end on my buggy

Got tired of the crappy stinger and cheap atv winch that came on this rig. Chuck19 and I decided it was time for an upgrade. This is what it did look like.

it would be really simple - just add in 2 supports from the grill hoop back to the "main hoop thingy jigger bob" inside the hood. Notch the grill and rock out. Winch all you want and no worry at all!
