Ipedog 12-31-2005 12:02 AM

I like the look too. If you don't mind my asking, what did it cost?

NEOCON1 12-31-2005 12:08 AM

it was only $81.00 and that was with tax so am very happy its the most affordable mod i have found for a HUMMER

LOOKS GREAT! Can you post a pic from the front side view so I could view a contract between the fenderflare and the grille?
Thanks,
Tim.

Ipedog 12-31-2005 12:56 AM

Wow! With that price my white 100% bling free zone H3 may actually become 100% Bling Free!

The question is, as the vehicle is leased, would GM get their knickers in a twist?

I hope not, as I can really see this happening! Do you mind posting pics from other perspectives?

Thanks in advance and Happy New Year!

NEOCON1 12-31-2005 01:22 AM

thanks guys will take more tomorrow and post . the line-x guy charged $1.00 per pump of the machine it took 76 . when i first spoke with him he thought 60 or so . he also sprayed the back and rapped all the edges around . removing the grill myself also saved some .

DDWH 12-31-2005 01:48 AM

That turned out great!

TNTH3 12-31-2005 02:24 AM

Like the look. Thinking about doing ours also and adding a chrome guard to the front. Any other prep to the grill prior to application?

Lucifer 12-31-2005 02:48 AM

Much better, chrome grills make too nice a reflector for laser guns

hmrlvr 12-31-2005 02:55 AM

WOW neocon that looks great. With the black wheels is gonna look real good. Can't wait to see it in person in Pismo. We do need more side pictures as Timgco asked.

BABHUMV 12-31-2005 03:28 AM

Cool Dude, I bet the D likes it too.

Happy New Year!

Where to next. ANything going on next weekend? I am going to Hollister on the 21st.

HummBebe 12-31-2005 03:43 AM

Try to make it on the 21st!

Did they charge an hourly labor charge?

Sewie 12-31-2005 04:15 AM

Looks great. Now you just need Timgco's black skidplate.

Steve - SanJose 12-31-2005 07:53 AM

Nice, almost military grade looking especially in green.

But I'll keep the bling on my H3 and probably add some more later.

S.

H3 white/ebony, lux pkg, chrome pkg, chrome side steps, chrome wheels, RW chrome locking gas cap cover, XM, auto, sunroof, hitchcam, mudflaps, etc.

NEOCON, up for a caravan? You can pick me up on the way. I am right off the freeway.

BABHUMV 12-31-2005 10:42 PM

NEOCON1, The grille looks awesome! Will your wheels be here in time for the 21st? We could get some nice shots in Hollister. Also, what about blacking out the emblems on the side?

NEOCON1 01-01-2006 02:15 AM

cool dudes we need to get everyone going up the 101 to hook up along the way . i'm just north of the 101 & 23 fwys babhumv is santa barbara . who all will be coming out of the greater LA area ? not sure if i will have wheels by then . i had heard 21st are we making a weekend of it 21st & 22nd ? HummBebe are we meeting sat morning at ranger station and anyone planning second day of wheeelin ?

NEOCON1 01-01-2006 02:20 AM

one thing i just noticed on norcal link , it says 22nd on first page but 21st inside calender section lets wheel both days

x-humm 01-01-2006 02:29 AM

Hey Neocon1,

That looks bitch... I wonder if I can find a local place to get it done for me. Also i wouldn't mind if they do the skid plate also. Black paint alone won't do any good. It has to be something stronger. Also let me know about the 21st. I am all available and if anyone wants to caravan, I am comming from the 210 and 57 Fwys.Let me know.

That stuff will scrape off on the skidplate. It has been done already. If you scuff it up and paint it black, you can always touch it up down the road.

BTW- did you just call Neocon a bitch?

NorCal is separate....different group....but fab to wheel with just the same

hey BABHUMV not sure if wheels will be here , they said 2-3 weeks and that was last wed. i may just want to use stock wheels for clearance issues , just worried about tire contact with front fenders in gnarly situations wont be an issue once i level or lift thought about blacking the emblems but will probably leave that little bit of bling on . what time do we need to leave santa barbara to make hollister on time ? just need to let darla know how early she needs to get up we need to leave here (conejo valley) about an hour before SB meet up . i will pm you our cell # for more planning . are you up for both days ? darla and i are making a weekend of this trip .

i went to the line-x website and found the guy here in the conejo valley they should have one listed for your neck of the woods . skid plate would look cool but would get scratched off like timgco stated . after seeing his black one im thinking of painting the embossed h3 emblem green and rest of plate black might be cool we could meet up here in the thousand oaks area and convoy up .
and hey did you call me a bitch LOL
