Just curious how many people have left the GM badge on the front doors. Is it me or does it look like a serious afterthought? After such a great design job, it seems rather tacky to slap that badge on the door!

I believe GM is adding that badge to all their 2006 vehicles...

<span class="ev_code_BLUE">That is correct. All 2006 GM vehilces will have the 1"x1" GM logo on them. GM wanted everyone to know that the vehicle they are looking at was a true blue GM. </span>

H2s are still technically built by AM General -- I wonder if they will have them...

Yep, mine will stay! I think they look pretty good on the H3. Now over at the Pontiac Solstice forum this is a big topic. As IMHO they totally look terrible on that car and very much an afterthought.

Good question, I'll try and remember to take a look on Monday, we have a 2006 H2 in the back. Superior Blue, with some strange running boards, and GoodYear MT/R tires.

f5fstop can you take a pic of the h2 in superior blue so I can see this color and get an idea what it would look like on the h3.

Just use your fingers and pull them off. THey are stuck on with 3M tape. WD40 takes the rest off.

Heated mine up with a hair dryer first. Makes it easier to remove. Be careful to place a cloth under the edge so the corners of the logo don't scratch the paint when being pried up.

Someone should call Bling's momma to bail his ass outta jail and get him to finish that "Get your G.E.D." night course.

Happy wheeling, Bender.

Our group had a chance to visit that plant and found out how this worked out. The plant is owned by AM General as the employees. All the parts are owned and supplied by GM, as are the marketing rights. They have slowed the production of the H2 over the last 2 years and the employees get reassigned to the H1 plant.

Thanks for the insight builder -- I didn't know that the parts were technically owned by GM, but that makes sense...
