Heyo,
The rig is looking killer!
Hitch - Yes, all the aftermarket hitches available now hang too long and WARNING - cannot be used for kinetic "snatch" recoveries, they'll rip right out of the sheet metal body. You want to try and find either a now long since discontinued UHAUL made hitch or the original OEM ones. They sit as high up as possible and the difference is that the UHAUL one, while sitting nice and high, is still not snatch proof but the OEM one is. More details:
ASFIR hidden winch mount - I've only heard good things about that item though very few ppl in the USA have it.
Bumpers - there are 3 main options currently - ARB or TRE4x4/China ebay ones or ASFIR.
The ARB one weighs 110lbs by itself so would necessitate HD springs (and then with the winch and skids and sliders you'll probably need top hat spacers too and extended length bump stops).
The TRE4x4 one weighs 70ish lbs but if you add a winch you're in HD territory there too. The TRE4x4 doesn't fit that great though near the edges, it has kind of a big gap and also requires the frame horns to be cut so personally, I wouldn't run it.
ASFIR would probably be the best option for you since you already have the hidden winch mount designed for it and it is also the lightest (around 35lbs I believe) and the cleanest looking (color kinda matches the lower gray trim too). I only know of one person in the USA who has it, guy named Mark in Phoenix, and I've heard he really likes it. I don't have any pics of his rig but here's one from google. Only thing is it is pretty pricey.
