Hey guys,
Just got pics of the Hummer H3 Bull Bar by Westin fro the tech contact there. Now what I need is the verdict......what do you think? Worth a try?

Looks good but you loose your front tow hooks.

I think so. I like the tow hooks, but I do like the look of this....if it is easily swapable....it might be worth a try.....

I've seen those on other trucks and I usually think they look pretty good. But it just looks a little off on the H3.

Plus you lose the tow hooks and some approach angle.

Agreed, approach angle is a consideration. To be honest, I would love to take my H3 off road more than just on my land, but seems like Wisconsin has zero to no trails.....so I might end up being OK with the approach angle....But you never know....either way the guard should be easily removable.

I'm one of the few on the forum that actually admits to liking some bling, but I don't think this bull bar thing looks very good. Probably better ways to spend the bling money.

But to each his own.

That was my simple abreviated opinion.

I think it looks cheap and is non-functional. You loose the front tow hooks which is not a good thing. I have seen those on a few vehicles in the past and just don't find them to be appealing. Customization is a personal thing, if you like it then do it.

Ever play monopoly? Then you will recognize the hat n mustache....

Damn....I am an import, but I have lived here long enough I should have recognized it. OK, joke's on me.

I know I want a brush guard / bull bar on the front of my rig, I just don't know which one. There is tons out there.....

I like somewhat unique look of a vehicle.....my last car was Isuzu Axiom.....by the way......awesome vehicle!!!

Since I am not sure what to get yet, I wanted to get some input....especially since Westin has not had pics until now.....so it should be pretty new to most people
