Hey all, Here is my H3 back in August. This was taken before I purchased my roof rack and mudflaps and my SMA dual exhaust.

After. I was just wanted your input on the paint job. P.S. Notice the calipers are also red too. I would Like your opinons good or bad.
And you Hummer owners have a great Holiday.

Nice. I like the color coded front and rear bumpers, the calipers are a nice touch too. I probably would have stayed with the black or chrome side steps for a little contrast but thats my opinion and you know what they say about opinions. Anyway, It looks really good. Enjoy and Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.

I think it looks real good with the bumpers painted. Not sure on the step, could go either way.

HIHUMMER 11-24-2005 01:03 PM

Like Cajun and Newbie, I probably would have stuck with the black step bars, but either way, it still looks really good. You've definitely made it your own! Good Job! Happy Turkey Day!

Do you have any shots from the front/back?

Mike E 11-24-2005 03:06 PM

Looks nice. I do like the painted bumpers. Nice touch. I too, probably would have left the step bars alone for a contrast but they sure add a personal touch to the vehicle.

I like the capipers painted .I dont think they would work as well with gray or black.Maybee yellow to match that yellow bumper thing in back? .

WTF are "capipers"?

fourfourto 11-24-2005 04:16 PM

sorry calipers.Im trying to type without looking at the keys. By the way capipers are next to the muffler bearing.

Very nice! How expensive is it to paint the plastic parts to match body color? Do they bondo it first for smooth finish?

westhillsat 11-24-2005 07:08 PM

I like the whole package, it makes it unique.
Is the dual exhaust the one that is sold by H3Source? If it is, one of the other members had one and mentioned no cabin noise from it.
If it's the same is it quiet in the cabin of the H3?

Thanks.

I knew that. You'll probably need to adjust your tie rods.

NOW FOR THE SHOCKER. I PHOTO SHOP THE PIC.
I PLAN TO DO THIS MODIFICATION IN THE SPRING OR EARLY SUMMER OF 2006. I DECIDED AFTER PLAYING AROUND WITH THE IDEA IS THAT I WOULD POST IT ON THE FORUMS TO GET YOUR OPINIONS AS FELLOW HUMMER OWNERS I DO VALUE YOUR THOUGHTS GREATLY. AND THE RESPONSES SEEM PRETTY POSITIVE(THE STEP BARS EH.., SO SO) I WILL PROBABLY LEAVE THE STEP BARS BLACK. I WAS CONSIDERING USING A LARGE LETTERED DECAL THAT SAID "HUMMER", AND I WOULD AFFIX THAT ON THE RED PAINTED STEP BARS. SO I BASICALLY WANTED YOU ALL TO THINK I ACTUALLY DID PAINT MY H3. RATHER THAN POST UPFRONT THAT I HAD A PHOTO SHOPPED MY H3. I THOUGHT BY DOING THIS I WOULD GET A MORE OF A REALISTIC CRITIQUE ON THE APPEARANCE. I HOPE I DIDN'T PISS YOU ALL OFF TOO MUCH, RAJIN CAJUN, NEWBIE, HIHUMMER, SURFERJO, MIKE E, 442, H2FINALLY, WESTHILLSAT, TIMGCO, PARTSGUY(cheese head!), HUMMBEBE, AND OF COURSE THE ALMIGHTY DRTYFN(even though he didn't comment on the look. He did mean to trash fourfourto bad spelling .) PERHAPS THE 2007 H3 WILL HAVE PAINTED BUMPERS RATHER THAN JUST BLACK?
