Re: What features would you like to see on the H3?

Re: What features would you like to see on the H3?
I just picked up an 08 on Monday and am extremely unhappy with that metal colored piece, aka the impact bar. I was going to buy one from an 07 until I saw the price. I thought about painting it but I don't want it to be a bad paint job and flake or chip.

hopefully the guys at GM would realize they made a dumb mistake with that  and change it back for next year, the only color it looks remotly good on is Boulder Grey, you could always take it into a professional place and have them paint it, and out of curiousty how is much is that piece, and wouldnt you have to change the whole skid plate to since that change as well and this year its like one big connected piece?

It was easy to change, get yourself a can of Dupli-color spray on truck bed liner, sand the area you want with fine san=d paper, clean off with some isopropyl alcohol and tape off all the surrounding area with masking tape and plastic or paper. Spray away, you can build the texture you want with how many coats you apply. Took a couple of hours tops. |

Re: What features would you like to see on the H3?
It won't do any worse than the paint that is on there and it is easy to touch up if you have to. I first thought that front piece was just clear coated aluminum, but when I got to prepping I noticed it was sprayed, it didn't matter I didn't like the look of it, it visually made it stick out more so I would have changed it if it was gold leaf!

Re: What features would you like to see on the H3?
The bumper bar is about 250 with a discount. That's too much, lol. We have a body shop at my dealership so I'll just wait until they need to paint a black car and I'll take mine off and let them paint it. I can't stand it. It's bothering me.
