dude if you like that is all that matters. what do you care if everyone here likes it, becuase in short, not everyone is going agree on one thing. Do what appeals to you.

It's all fun, accessorizing the H3's.

Some write about being anti-bling. Then they obsess over putting decorative Christmas tree lights (marker lights) on the roof, followed up with complaints about the wind noise at freeway speeds. But I thought they only used their H3 offroad. Gotta love it.

If I can ever wear out my Goodyear Wranglers that came with the rig, I will probably be wasting money on some 20" wheels and Nitto A/T tires, so I'm one to talk...

Not sure, but it may be cumbersome if you like to change your own oil.

Lets see, you lose both factory tow hooks, decrease your approach angle, do not add any significant protection to the front end and all you have to show for it is a shiny thing bolted to the front of an off road vehical that decreases it's cabailities.

In short -it's freakin' useless.

Agreed...it does not have much purpose besides the bling factor.....but anything you put on the trun besides a winch is pretty much just as useless :-)

HummerB has a good point. Ultimately its your opinion that matter most.

However, since you're asking for opinions here... You can add me to the against count. FUGLY

as time goes by, you might start considering putting a winch up there. I don't see that happening around that. Ultimately as a functionality thing, not only is it worthless, but you lose your tow hooks, decreased angle of attack on the front, and any thoughts about a winch. Does though have a beefy appearance for the mall parking lot. Be careful if you do offroad with it, you'll mangle whatever that thing is bolted to if its not the frame.

Don't really like it, looks like its frowning.

plus no tow hooks, get a good brush guard.
