Here are some various stages of Bebe-rhino project.

Disassembled...








The mud from Black rock was inside my inner fender well....

That really looks good.

Humm3r 01-09-2006 01:29 AM

nmikes 01-09-2006 02:14 AM

looks awesome... I'm going to get this done with mine eventually. Can't wait to see what it looks like when your done.

Ipedog 01-09-2006 10:56 AM

Looks good HummBeBe!

evomind 01-09-2006 01:47 PM

what did u use to make those black?
arent they molded in that greyish color? meaning that if u paint it and it chips, the underlying color will be exposed?
looks good. ive wanted to do that to mine, but wasnt sure abt the issues i addressed.

HummBebe 01-09-2006 02:47 PM

I took all of the plastic parts off, and then took to the local Line-x shop. So every Grey plastic piece now has line-x on it. I also did the fenders,rock rails and the brush guard.

It looks great, I was surprised at how simply everything is put together.

However, the line-x makes it a little more complicated to re-install. I am needing to gently sand/file the bolt holes to get some of the clips to fit.

Oh well, it's taking a little bit longer than expected to reassemble, but the fit and finish still looks great!

Thanks for all of the compliments

Mr. I - Man 01-09-2006 08:39 PM

That looks hella sweet. Nice ride!

humvee 01-09-2006 10:28 PM

Did you have to take off and replace the rubber that goes around where the fender meets the body or was it left on and masked off when sprayed? And how did the fenders that are attached to the rear door come off? I was told that when you unbolt them there are two clips that still hold them on and you have to cut them and replace when putting them back on?
I would appreciate the info
Looks nice!!

Left and masked/wired when sprayed. It is secured to the fender with glue.


And how did the fenders that are attached to the rear door come off?

There are 4-5 small bolts that secure the 1/4 fender to the interior of the rear door. There are also clips that are used to secure to the exterior of the rear door. The best way to remove the clips, is to use a long pair of needle nose pliers. Pulling the fender away from the body gently, slide the pliers down and pinch the clip to release.



I was told that when you unbolt them there are two clips that still hold them on and you have to cut them and replace when putting them back on?

If you do break them, you can purchase them from Hummer. Also, the clips for the front flares will work for the back. Don't lose the rubber washers

humvee 01-09-2006 11:28 PM

Thanks for the info!!!

NEOCON1 01-10-2006 01:48 AM

HummBebe 01-10-2006 03:21 AM

working on it now I will post pics in the AM.

Huck BB62 01-10-2006 05:48 AM

HummBebe, is that wee tube in the right fender well the air intake? Shoot, I'm thinkin' just making that larger would help the I-5 breath! By the way, itlooks like a great time to put a larger horn on your H3.

h2co-pilot 01-10-2006 11:19 AM

Bebe!! That looks great!!!!!

HummBebe 01-10-2006 12:37 PM

Air Intake...I think so. I was concerned at the amount of BRD mud inside. I cleaned and vacuumed as much as I could out of it, and changed my air filter.
I had a good laugh when I saw the horn, oh well.

You will never be rid of the BRD mud!!!

Truck looks great. Can't wait to see it in Hollister all put back together .

Huck BB62 01-10-2006 11:48 PM

Being a huge fan of Line-X, just wondering why you're calling it a Rhino.

HummBebe 01-11-2006 12:04 AM

Bebe rhino sounds better, and its more about the texture. Don't worry, Line-x is in my heart

NEOCON1 01-11-2006 03:34 AM

i like the rhino name , hey its a tuff ride

hmrlvr 01-11-2006 03:54 AM

I see the brush trembling already

Sewie 01-13-2006 03:43 AM

Looks awesome!

And I see you straightened your plates out. I'll fix that.

DarthKarl 01-13-2006 09:17 AM

I think the bad-a$$ look would be complete if you did the grill as well.

HummBebe 01-13-2006 01:35 PM

Girls aren't complete without a little bling
