Well, got my OEM roof lights on and wired, got the grille pulled and painted, brush guard, and tail light guards on. Just waiting on the gobi stealth & ladder to show up.

What tail light guards did you get and what was the cost if you dont mind me asking. I saw some on EBAY for 89.00

Yep!:) got it up in some light mud on forest service roads today, handled great! But ended up in a bit of a rain/snow storm out in the gorge so didn't get any pics. Lame :/ definitely need bigger tires!

Got the blue star modules firmware updated the other day and finally had a few min to install it this evening. Works great, nice to be able to stream music via Bluetooth!

Well I removed the running boards yesterday afternoon as well as the roof rack crossbars. Totally spaced that I had removed them at 530 this morning when I stopped at 7eleven for smokes on the way to work and damn near fell on my face. Needless to say my exit was less than graceful and elicited a laugh from the guy parked next to me. :shame: at 5'5 once I've got 35's on here I may need a ladder and that definitely kills the rancho lift for me LOL! As is I've had to settle for embarrassment this morning and ripping the crotch on my pants getting back in this afternoon! TGIF! :cheers:

That sucks! If you get the OEM sliders there are some removable steps you can get. They worked great for my kids and not too bad to remove.

Great looking truck. I still sometimes miss the 08 H3 Alpha I had. Great truck, great engine, great off road capability.

Well, rolled out today with the wife to go poke our nose around some logging roads Northeast of us and to let the dogs play in the snow, definitely looking forward to putting 35's on!

Thank you!

just got my custom championship edition hood decal from 2007HummerH2, and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. Took a couple hrs worth of work, but it's everything I'd hoped it would be. What a smooth experience it was working with her, I can't recommend her products enough!

Still waiting on the gobi. Was supposed to show up last week. Got a call on Saturday from them apologizing for the delay and I should have it this week. Fingers crossed. Nice part is they offered the sun roof insert for free! Score! Hopefully that wasn't BS and they come through on it. They blamed the delay on a custom wind fairing to fit the off road lights.
