Okay I have recieved several comments in regards to my winch bumper asking what it is, who makes it etc....

Well it's a Boulder Accessories..Boulder was partly owned by the HUMMER Brand..When GM decided to sell the brand they shut boulder down and liquidated its inventory. Some of us at the time were lucky to pick these winch bumper kits up at less than cost. Well those days are gone.....
As most of you know the only option on the market today is the Warn Winch bumper. It is a great product but....... It REALLY intrudes on the approach angle of the H2.
You wont be able to do this with a WARN bumper

Now you could do that with the SUPER UGLY, SUPER HEAVY, CRAZY EXPENSIVE, Will rust out in 2 months, Road Armor bumper.

Or I could maybe go to Travis at Rubberduck4x4 and let him reproduce and IMPROVE the Boulder Accessories winch bumper and he could sell it as a kit to you guys. We did this with the H2 Treehugger Brush Guard. But this time things will be a little different.
If you are serious about it you will have to put your money where your mouth is... Meaning if you want it you need to give a nice deposite on it BEFORE we even start.
So lets do this. If 5 of you are serious I will give Travis a call and ask him what kind of deposit he needs from the 5 of you to take this new project on. I am going to roughly assume that this thing will cost close to $1500 (could be more, could be less, I will have to talk with Rubber duck to nail it down) with the winch.
We had 6 guys that said they would buy the treehugger .... of the 6, 3 (you know who you guys are and you are on this forum lol ) of the guys misteriously had money problems or other excuses and never made the purchase.
With money down it will ensure that this project/product is done with speed....
