Does the current version of the Nighthawk JKU Rear bumper work with a standard hitch now? I know this question was previously asked, but based on the holes in the bumper, I see in the photo's on your site, it looks like it would support a hitch.

A — Staff (Artec Team): This bumper has not had any revisions to work with a hitch .

Can you order the Nighthawk rear bumper in bare steel ? I want to install one on my 2017 Jeep JK 2 door sport but I want to put a clear coat on the bumper instead of painting or powdercoating it. Is this feasible ? Thank you,, Steve

A — Staff (Artec Team): All of our products ship in a bare steel finish, We leave it up to the consumer to finish the parts to suit their taste.

i'm interested in your JKU nighthawk rear bumper. a couple questions: does it work with the factory tow hitch (without cutting/etc.)? does the model sold ($549) have black powder coating? do you have installation instructions (cutting/drilling required for installation)? thanks!

A — Staff (Artec Team): No, this model does not work with a tow hitch. This is sold bare steel and would need to be properly finished prior to installation. Instructions are linked on the product page. There is not any cutting required, but depending on the year of the Jeep there may need to be 4 holes drilled for mounting.

Does this require the rear crossmember to be removed and/or the frame to be cut?

A — Staff (Artec Team): No, the rear crossmember stays on the vehcle.
