i like the concept but 325 seems a bit steep for this mount. Anyone else with thoughts?

I love making new friends, but I did put a lot of time & energy into this design, and figure if I can sell a few I can make back my investment in R&D & that fine Warn winch. I've emailed flyers to most Hummer dealerships around the country, just want to recoup my $$, then I'll share! I don't really want to get into the shipping business too far.

What price do you guys think is fair? This is a fine piece of work, laser cut & made to fit...why spend the time & effort to fab one when I've done the hard work? There's nothing like it on the market.

Is your item Patent Pending? Considering the price of a new hitch and the price of the other designs out there, I think $199.00 would be fair.

looks like a nice kit

Cris -

I like the work that you've done and appreciate the effort. However I think that $325 is way too high for what this item is.

Price this at $200-225 and I think that you'll probably sell a bunch.

X2, at that price I would definitely be in for one. You have done a great job and I certainly understand wanting/needing to recoup your cash and time investment but when you can get the bumper mount for $650 it does make it a tougher sell at $325 I think.

OK, you've all convinced me. Members of this forum can purchase for $225 + shipping, I'll save the big price for the outside world. You're the ones that helped me to find the right balance of ideas, and I'm not out to make a lot off this (c'mon...the market isn't that big). Honestly, they cost me around $190 each, and I'm picking up 4 tomorrow....I don't really want to sit on them or use 'em for ballast, I want you guys to put them to good use.

H3Hummer, why do you ask about Patent? You want to buy my plans? I wasn't thinking about having to police the world to see if anyone copied it....

I'll send you a PM in a minute.

Side pic with stock grill guard

Looking at the mount in that picture, it looks like its ment for a H3 with a grill guard. Well what if you dont have a grill guard. It might look weird sticking out that far. Anyway of making one so that it sits closer to the grill??

They're already made as is, mount only extends 8" out from grill, the idea was to design it so it would fit with or without the stock guard. I had it on for a week without the grill guard to see how it looked, it really doesn't stick out that far, looks like it belongs there.

I have to agree. I was sold from the front but from the side it doesn't look as good. It looks like a good funtional product I just don't like how far out it is, especially the fairlead.
