Like the grill and bumpers. But the fenders, mirror, etc. is a little much.

timgco 12-07-2005 08:33 PM

Can you please take more pics of the fender areas? It looks good from what I can tell in the pics.

Sewie 12-07-2005 08:47 PM

Tim - you thinking about doing yours.

The more I look at the pics, I think it might look good on a black one. And definitely protects the fenders.

There's just too much contrast on this one IMO.

timgco 12-07-2005 09:11 PM

Not sure, but I look like the look. i think if I were to do it, i would make guards on the main impact areas on the fenderflares only.

I like that alot !!!! I wish i had gotten mine like that but i probly couldnt afford it. Just curious is this John ?

Kind of ugly but might serve a purpose for bush wacking scratch resistence. Might as well consider doing up all the vulnerable surfaces in plastic like a Honda Element and offering it as a super offroad option.

But those of us using H3's as a UAV (urban assault vehicle/ski transportation) will probably decline.

couple weeks ago I went down to the Rhinoliner dealer and got a quote for similar work:

Roof - $275
Fender flares - $250-$300
Front grill (if I removed and brought separate) - thrown in when he was doing the other work.

Not a bad price, I'm just waiting until after Christmas and more $$ to get it done.

evldave 12-07-2005 11:49 PM

ok, was thinking some more. Are you planning on doing the plastic that goes up and over the doors? From the pictures it looks like that might be the only uncoated black plastic? Otherwise, this looks really great!

HummerNewbie 12-08-2005 12:08 AM

Think I would have to see it in person to really tell. Looks like in should be a police vehicle with the black on white

Desert Dan 12-08-2005 12:30 AM

I like the fender flares front and rear. The rest is too much. And hard to wash

It looks like some of the H3 Test Mules in the book on the H3

NEOCON1 12-08-2005 12:44 AM

looks like a chia pet

crop000s 12-08-2005 01:02 AM

Looks OK, would look better with paint job that would fit theme. Maybe an urban camo pattern w/black rims??

mightypuck 12-08-2005 03:19 AM

U..G..L..Y

You do know that you can get Line-X in white eh? Gotta question, why call it a "rhino" H3 when it's coated with the superior product, Line-X? The Line-X guys hear you callin' their custom H3 a rhino, their feelings are going to be hurt!

aggiehummer...er 12-08-2005 12:09 PM

Brand association. I'd venture to say 90% of people would recognize Rhino before they would Line-X. Rhino is the truck's name. Line-X is proudly displayed on the sticker though.

We're getting some black simulated beadlock wheels in in a couple of days, those will go on it, we actually had a wheel Line-Xed to see how it would look, it wasn't bad.

Aggie,
How are the door handles on the hands? I think KenP was considering Line-X'ing his chromies that came on his SUT and was worried about them being too rough.

BTW, I don't know what to think about this one. I think the stark color difference between the trim and body color is overdone. If it were a two tone with the lower part of the truck in a dark color. Crop000s's idea of a maybe darker or cammo paint might make it fly better.

GreenH3 12-08-2005 01:44 PM

The step-up bars should be Line-X for sure.
