JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

I got my new Smittybilt stinger installed and bedlined the grille

Olympic makes those type of light brackets also. Look under "New Products". It looks like they have a extra bend for a jack though. May still work?

great looking bumper adds so much to the front, now for the newbie question what purpose does that bumper have for off-roading?

Stingers are supposed to prevent somersault rollovers on downhills.

Thanks guys. The only thing I still need to do is get rid of the cross member that was used to protect the electronic discos since I dont have them, and it looks out of place. The bumper does come with a lower skid plate that attaches to it but it is tapered to fit the lines of the bumper and really doesnt do anything so I left it off.

Thanks Kuffaar. They are actually pretty cheap as far as front bumpers go, cheap enough to sell the old one and buy this one. $299. I sold my XRC to local jk guy and bought the stinger
