That grill, HIDs and valence look eerily familiar. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif Missing something, though.http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

[VTSTOMPER]

That looks very nice! I am a big fan!

No bumpa fo you!

[Dewi2005]

are you running any lift with the 37's if not are you having any rub?

[Dewi2005]

Can't tell for sure.... what brand/model of tires are those?

[JohnnyRPM]

Tires are Parnelli Jones Dirt Grips. 37x12.5-17
Get 'em here...
http://stores.ebay.com/East-Coast-Tires-and-Wheels

$1000 for 4

They balanced no problemo are wearing pretty well and absolutely NO rubbing at all on the street. Can't say what they'll do under full articulation as I haven't had 'em long enough to know.

Oh, and I have no lift.

[Dewi2005]

Great!! Thanks for the info and link... Im starting to look for replacement tires and like the way your rig looks with these tires.. Thanks again

Unfortunately my wife would seriously frown on me making the 2345 mile each way trip just to drive my "stupid Hummer" around with a bunch of other "stupid Hummer" owners.

Besides, my skilz are really not up to Moab standards. I'm a relative wheeling newbie compared to many on this list and Eastern Massachusetts isn't exactly busting at the seams with offroad terrain to practice on. Hell, the commie liberal tree huggers out here are one by one closing off the dirt bike/ATV accessible land, let alone stuff suitable for 4 wheeled traffic.

[Dick Renaud]

Which Brush guard is that?

[Racer-X]

Great looking truck. Can I ask why the center caps are off the wheels?

Personal preference probably. Some like it this way.

Johnny, it looks badass.

[UNOMYFLO]

I like the look those lights make it look like a cameleon?? sp?

Whats the skinny on those HID lights and tyhe black surrounds?


Do they make them for the H3? The shape of the square around the light looks about the same I am interested in them can you send me a link on where to get the assys and the black surrrounds if they are 2 separate pieces or do they come as a complete set.

Also are they plug and play? If not what is involved with the install?

Looks great nice ride bro.

Looks like its ready. Id like to have HID's on mine...thats probably the only thing i b!tch about on my truck.

[JohnnyRPM]

Thanks for the favorable feedback!

Yes, the center caps are off cause I kinda like 'em that way....a little different, a little tougher looking IMHO.

The brush guard is the Manik powdercoated...they also come stainless for more money. I got mine though a local truck store for about $580. Great product for the price...real sturdy, easy install, and I do actually push things around with the front vertical portion of the bar. Comes pre-drilled for 2 off road lights.

The lights are from xenondepot and will fit any 7" round (6024) headlight application I think. Not sure if it'll fit the H3. The surrounds come chrome but I scuffed them up and painted them with the same stuff I did my grill with...Duplicolor Spray bedliner. I love the stuff. The install was pretty plug and play except for some dremeling of the bucket the headlight sits in. Real easy mod for anyone.

That's a great look - especially with the wingy thingys gone from the front bumper. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif
I really like that brush guard - and the price is great. I just wonder about interfering with the approach angle, even if it is slight.
