Front extraction points?

What do you guys do for front extraction points? I've been wrapping a strap around my front axle, which is fine for quick easy stucks where a little tug is all it takes, but this wekend I was reminded why I need to get some good points up front. So, I'm debating, front receiver would be nice... I see one for under $200 but wonder how low it will hang. Shouldn't be too big an issue. Other thought was to cut holes in the bumper to attach hooks on each side and use a sling between them for extraction. Another thought was to get a real bumper up front which would be good for eventually getting a winch, but very $$$ looks like over $1000 for a winch bumper. So what do you guys do for frot extraction points?

I use a pair on tow hooks mounted to the frame. Cost me about 20 bucks and less then 30 minutes.
