Will this mount fit with an aftermarket steel bumpers or is it just for the oem
The Carnivore Winch Mounting Plate is specifically engineered to fit within the factory steel bumper (or factory plastic bumper, depending on the specific variation, such as the OEM modular steel bumper setup), rather than general aftermarket standalone steel bumpers.
Most hidden winch mounting plates of this style bolt directly to the factory frame horns and utilize the factory bumper's specific internal cavity and mounting profile. Because aftermarket steel bumpers (like those from stubby or full-width aftermarket brands) have entirely different internal bracketry, winch trays, and mounting locations built directly into their own housing, a factory-integration plate like the Carnivore typically will not fit an aftermarket bumper.
If you are running an aftermarket steel bumper, you generally need to use the winch mount built directly into that specific bumper brand, as most aftermarket bumpers come with an integrated winch plate or require a proprietary mount designed exclusively for that brand's architecture.

What gauge steel is your carnivore winch mounting plate for plastic bumper made from ? I see 16gauge (1/16”) on a marketing flyer on the website. This must be a mistake.
Winch Plate is 5mm Carbon Steel (approximately between 6-gauge and 7-gauge)
