I brought my H3 to a dealer early this week to have a few accessories put on. One of which were the HUMMER letters. Before I left, I noticed they were loose. I asked the guy and he said that's normal. Well, I went on my way and started polishing up the grille when I got home. It took all of 5 minutes before the R fell off. I decided to do this myself. I went to 4 auto stores and Home Depot and no one carries 3M Auto tape. I bought the knock off and I also picked up Loctite Epoxy Gel for Metal/Plastic from Home Depot. After using the auto tape, I realized that it wasn't going to work. You can see the tape if looking down on it. So, I opted for the Epoxy. I had to remove each letter, remove the crap glue they used and cleaned with Windex. I then mixed the Epoxy and went one letter at a time. I couldn't be happier with the job. It just goes to show that sometimes you'll do a better job than the dealer -- not to mention, I'm the opposite of handy. So, for me to do it, anyone can do it.

The letters are on there rock solid and I have no fear of them coming off. (although I purchased an extra set for piece of mind).

Thanks to all in this thread for the advice.

-Chris
