I believe your options are very limited on the facelift, I think you might need to wait until someone like Buckster or RRSTDV8 come along.

Not cheap, that's for sure! I was lucky enough to get my (pre-facelift) OE parts second hand though un-used off a member on here but that included a bumper with the relevant cutouts too. |

Buckster has one on his facelift L320. Hopefully he can give you some pointers. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders

Not installed it yet. Have an issue with ARC controller and waiting for that to get fitted/working and my lean error to go. Didn't want to complicate things.

Just out of interest, what sort of rating is appropriate to a RRS?

I think the G4 winch was rated at 9000lb or just over 4 tonnes. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders

wildbear do a discreet mount but requires a bumper cut. (looks very discreet though if done right

The image Wildbear use to illustrate their mount (e.g., on eBay) looks to be of exactly the same car that FirstFour use to illustrate what they label as Britpart.

Well Britpart are a parts distributor and Wildbear are a fabricator. I'll leave you to work out what may or may not be the link there. Andy at Wildbear is a lovely guy to talk to. 2012 SDV6 HSE (technically its hers)
