You will always run the risk of getting some sort of damage when you wheel even if it is just in mud. Just watch what you are doing and avoid very tight trails if possible. Below is a pic of my H3 all prepped and ready to hit the trails in Tellico. May not look the greatest like this but two days of wheeling and no trail damage. Well not to the paint at least. Messed up a couple of wheels but not too bad, most wouldn't even notice. The shields on the doors I bought from another member here. I highly recommend them but at this point you have to make your own because as far as I know there are none on the market for the H3 yet. The light blue is painters tape which works great and leaves no residue when you take it off.
