Re: Wrecked my Hummer yesterday
I got a grille a few weeks ago. Thanks. Truck is all back together with the new winch bumper but has to go back. The hood doesn't line up and has runs & dirt in the clear coat.
I still need to get my winch & 2 pairs of PIAA lights though.

I still need to install my winch and 4 PIAA lights. Also need to get it Line-X coated. Just been too busy getting my Vette ready for a car show. Which was a waste of time, as it ended in a free tow from AAA at 11pm last night. Grrrr.

Re: Wrecked my Hummer yesterday
What bumper is that? Road Amor, Road Rhino? I know they are all essentially the same but lesser issues with the latter.

LoJac, it is a Road Rhino. I bought it all welded and ready to install. It is 1/4" steel with 7/8" steel for the tow hook brackets. No issues in the installation; it follows the factory gaps quite nicely.
It will look much better once I get it Line-X'ed and PIAA lights installed.

Re: Wrecked my Hummer yesterday
how much did you end up paying for that one shipped and everything? I've always been dying for one of these but everyone has always said the installation is a nightmare with the road armor but I guess road rhino bought them out or something.
Did you order straight from them or someone else?

I ordered it directly from Road Rhino (Elijah Kragulj) roadrhino@gmail.com
$995 for the bumper (fully welded & ground smooth; raw steel finish) and $175 freight from Chicago to St. Louis. If you decide to order one, tell him Michael Baldwin from St. Louis referred you (I used Maze Collision here, that may refresh his memory).
The body shop that did my Hummer said it went on easy. They had to shim up the passenger side a little bit to get it to maintain the gap below the grille.
This bumper is SUPER heavy duty and I am very happy with the fabrication of it. No complaints on my end.

Thanks! You mean I have an aftermarket item that you don't? That's a nice switch for me for a change.
I'll post more pics once I get it coated.

Re: Wrecked my Hummer yesterday
We decided to take the Beast out 4 wheelin & fishing Sunday afternoon.
High Centered. Both right wheels were barely touching the ground.
With the help of my pit crew, we finally got out.
And here's a random Corvette / Girl pic for good measure.

I bought it from a guy on Craigslist. It came with a Gobi ladder. He said it was a Gobi rack but I've never seen one like it either.
