I started thinking with all the H3s that will be hitting the road, how can someone make one that will stand out in the crowd. I got this idea from the 02 Avalanche that I have that has most of the panels painted. So I worked up a couple of pictures of what an H3 would look like with the same treatment.

Sorry the colors are not a complete match but I am rusty with PhotoShop but you get the basic idea.

Looking for honest input. I know this will not be everyone's cup of tea but still let me know what you think. The other plan will be to add a chrome brushguard and gas cap cover when they are available

Thanks

I like it.

I would rather see a white one done with an adventure package and everything black/white. Easier done too.

Chrome the lower grill panel, the tow hooks, (I don't like the chrome look but since it's on there). Also, did you try all or part of the back bumper? It looks incomplete from the rear.

You read my mind. I was thinking that the lower grill and the tow hooks would look good in chrome. The only problem with the tow hooks is messing the chrome up if the H3 had to be towed out *Gasp* but a strap would resolve that problem.

As far as the rear bumper see how this looks

I think that cleaned up the rear. Chrome is used all of the time on the tow hooks and they seem to hold up pretty well.

Drty, did you get a 3 year old to paint those? http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

Hey Friguy, it looks good to me, I was thinking of doing the same to my Boulder Gray as soon as I get it, right now I'm trying to figure out how to get ghe chrome wheels + the suspension package at the same time... how would that look with chrome bumpers?

They look good with a body color grill also.
