Question Hidden winch mount for 07?

I was wondering if anyone knows of or would be able to recommend a hidden winch mount for my 07 Lariat Scab? I know warn makes one for the 04/05 and its my understanding that it wont fit an 07.
I know my other option is to get some big honking grille guard with a winch mount, but i'd like to try to find one of the ones that fits inside the bumper.

This is the one i'm talking about: https://www.warn.com/truck/mounting-...ord_f150.shtml

I would call or email Warn and ask them if it will fit. I don't really know what would be different about the 07, that would make it not work.
I really like the look of that setup. Nice and clean, and keeps the stock look. The big *** heavy bumpers you are talking about, only look right on a very few trucks in my opinion.

I talked to warn. Unfortunately they dont have anything. As far as i could tell, rough country didnt either, along with all of the other aftermarket parts suppliers i could think of. Real shame.

Supposedly they have different frame mounts or something like that. not really sure what the exact difference is, but there is one unfortunately.

Just a thought but my plan is to go with a front receiver and use one of those winch multi mounts that slides into a receiver. This will allow me to use my winch front or back and let me take it off when I dont need it.
