What have your experiences been?

Mine have the hummer name molded into the covers, just the chrome letters were separate. I think they are still sold on ebay (although less than what I paid now).

Confession, I've never loaded them with anything, I guess they are just for show on my truck. They did seem to fit a bit loose on the 2007, but when I installed on the 2009 they are very snug and seem sturdy. More of an issue with GM rails than crossbars it would seem.

Good luck.
