Aluminess alternatives?

I've been searching and haven't found exactly what I'm looking for so I thought I'd just ask in hopes that someone can point me in the right direction. I would like to put a tire carrier and box on the back, both swingarms. I'm not a huge fan of the large bumper they make with the bars on the outsides of the tail lights etc. I'm hoping to piece together a cheaper alternative. I see they make a tire carrier that can be mounted stand alone, but I don't see anything that the box can connect to on its own.

Look into the Hitchgate products. It seems like a good alternative to buying a full bumper if you are only looking to mount a tire and a box.

Aluminess makes a stand alone swing out box that attaches just like their stand alone spare tire carrier. The box and contents is limited on the weight capacity. Call them up as it's not on their site. I have bought blems from them for a significant discount so ask if they have anything laying around.
