Welcome Jess,
Some of us LIKE some Chrome, so don't worry about the backlash, it's all in FUN?? 
Just do what YOU LIKE, but watch these guys/gals, they can be!TOUGH 
DON"T FEED THE H2 OWNERS!!! they feed on FEAR!

Love the color! When I bought my SUT, I wanted the Stealth Grey but I couln't find it within a reasonable distance. I went with the Red Metalic. Good Luck with it!

From the front - notice the light bar on top...I have not see this on too many H2's. This came from the factory. By the way - what is best for the front? Remove the license plate or put some H2 moniker there?

Jesse WELCOME! PLEASE, get that black **** off that truck and replace it with CHROME! It's hurting my eyes!
And about the Prius, I'm actually taking my friend to buy one on Saturday. I told her we'd take the Hummer, of course.

I have to admit that really looks awesome! Convincing the wife that this needs to be done might be a little tricky. Had to buy her a brand new Prius before I was able to go out and get this toy. That’s right - she has a Prius - 50+ miles to a gallon and I have the environment killing gas guzzler. At least I can now drive all over the environment!
Like I always say - it is easier to ask for forgiveness than it is for permission.

For me the colors went like this - other H2 owners please don't be offended....this is just what went through my mind when picking the colors.
Black - Looks Awesome when clean - but keeping up with it will be tough and after a few years black never looks as good as new.
Pewter - Looks great - wife wanted this color. But I have been a long time GM Truck owner and I have seen pewter on every make and model of truck for the last 10 years. For me this is the most overdone color besides black. I wanted to be different.
White - I had a while Denali XL - Love white - easy to keep clean. But in an H2 it looks like a fleet car or cop car. Reminded me of some UN Peacekeeper vehicle. Not that this is bad - but it is not what I wanted.
Maroon - At first I did not like this color at all - but it grew on me because it really is different than all the rest. But still...just not my style.
Yellow - Looks awesome and how I imagine all hummers should look. But kind of makes me think it is gimmicky. Not sure how resale will be. But still sporty and all original.
Desert Sand - Love this look. I think "tank", or "driven in Iraq". I almost went for this color but again I thought it might be a little less popular and tougher to sell down the road.
Slate Blue - the color I chose. This is the color I very first liked. During the day and in sunlight it looks great. Adds a sense of luxury for me. Chrome really stands out against the blue. At night – the white, pewter and yellow all look better. At night the blue can look sorta green but overall still looked good to me. Like I said before – I came from a Yukon Denali XL – and the fear of losing that sense of luxury is what made me get Slate Blue.
One thing is for sure - the color really creates a personality for these trucks. If there were ever a vehicle that had personality - the H2 has the most of it and the color makes each one unique.

I thought it currently was the same color. I could be wrong. If there was actually a true stealth grey, it would definitely not have blue tints to it (you would think).
Someone mentioned desert sand and that color, most of all, is my favorite!!

Jesse, Welcome and congrats on the purchase. Personally I'd blacken the truck out but some folks like Chrome. I believe Doc and H2Rocks are representing well for the chrome crowd so you will not be alone. You'll probably take some s*it from certain folks here on the forum but it's all in good fun.
Enjoy |
