Nighthawk Stinger Front Bumper w- Aluminum Skid for JK, JL, & JT
The Artec Nighthawk Stinger front bumper brings full-width trail protection to the Jeep Wrangler JK, JL, and Gladiator JT, topped with a mid-tube stinger hoop that guards the grille and shields your light bar and winch on steep approaches. Built in the USA from heavy laser-cut steel and finished with an aerospace aluminum rock guard, it is engineered for hard wheeling without the weight penalty of a solid-steel skid.
Key Features
- Made in the USA from 1/4", 3/16", and 1/8" CNC laser-cut and formed steel
- Mid-tube stinger hoop built from 1.75" DOM tubing to protect the grille, light bar, and winch line
- 1/4" thick formed winch plate and internal gusseting for supreme rigidity
- 1/4" aerospace aluminum rock guard skid that bolts on with no drilling required
- 3/4" thick high-strength alloy steel shackle mounts for recovery
- Accepts LED square-style or OEM LED fog lights
- Contoured from 3D scan data for maximum approach angle and tire clearance
Fitment & Compatibility
Fits the Jeep Wrangler JK (2007-2018), Wrangler JL/JLU (2018-present), and Gladiator JT (2020-present). Designed to mount most winches on the 1/4" winch plate and to accept LED square or OEM LED fog lights (note plastic-bumper JK trims accept LED lights or JK-style aftermarket only). Prefer a cleaner look without the hoop? See the standard Nighthawk Front Bumper. Round out the build with the matching JL Nighthawk Rear Bumper.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which Jeeps does this bumper fit?
It fits the Wrangler JK (2007-2018), Wrangler JL/JLU (2018-present), and Gladiator JT (2020-present).
What is the difference between the Stinger and the standard Nighthawk?
The Stinger adds a 1.75" DOM mid-tube hoop over the center of the bumper for grille, light bar, and winch protection. The standard Nighthawk shares the same base bumper without the hoop.
Do I have to drill to mount the skid?
No. Artec redesigned the mounting so the aluminum rock guard skid bolts on with no drilling required.
Can I mount a winch and lights?
Yes. The 1/4" winch plate accepts most winches, and the bumper is cut for LED square-style or OEM LED fog lights.
