The Rugged Ridge XHD Stinger Guard is the ideal complement to the XHD Stinger (11540.13). Constructed of high - strength stamped steel, the guard is contoured to match the dimensions of the XHD Stinger, adding a muscular, off - road accent to the XHD bumper. Finished with a durable textured black powder coat, the Stinger Guard allows full use of the Winch retaining hook, when properly installed. Each Guard receives eight elongated relief cuts on the primary panel that allow for increased cooling airflow while still protecting the radiator and grill from off - road hazards.
