Look what the Badlands did!
Here's the aftermath of our club trip to the Badlands in Attica, IN. What a fun place! Spent the whole day doing things with the H3 that I NEVER thought it could do. Here's some before and after pics. Also, does anyone know where I can buy the side protectors that are like magnets? I have some really bad scratches that I need to buff out. 
The pictures are before and then after cleaning today.

I'm waiting for the other guys to send me the pictures of my truck in action from the day. Hopefully I'll have them soon to post.

Re: Look what the Badlands did!
Looks like you had fun!
As for the scratch questions... I get plently of scratches everytime I go off-road and I take them out after everytime. So far the best product I've used is, Nu Finish Scratch Doctor and some microfiber cloths. Easy to use (apply, dry to haze, wipe off), doesn't leave anymore scratches, not even swirl marks like other products I've used.

Re: Look what the Badlands did!
Thanks! They are 33" Mickey Thompson Baja MTZ's. Everyone that sees them in person thinks they are larger like the 35's.
Let me tell you, I drove around basically in a swamp yesterday with those and ran circles around everyone else. The H1's were getting stuck all over the place and the H2's had a hard time as well. When I felt the front end dip into a hole I just gave it a little more gas and it pulled right out no problem. I was running 20psi in them all day. These tires are by far the best upgrade I've done to my H3 yet.
