If I come by on Saturday can you make me one? Nice job, looks really good.
Where are you located?
I have been getting a ton of interest on this bumper from various webforums. I was thinking about putting together like a 5 bumper group buy. It would be great for an independent Hummer owner to stop by and give their opinions.
I have researched every winch mount on the market for H3's, both hidden and exposed, and I think I could price mine more than 30% lower than the least expensive hidden bumper and price it at or lower than the exposed mounts (similar to the steelcraft one).

Really good job! Love to see what real 4x4 owners are capable of. Does the plate need any reinforcement behind to keep it from warping just in case you get too much pull on?

Git out of the 3 Hummers, I was going to ask the same thing except I will be there Friday! Awesome job and it looks great. Lost the inch and then turned right around and got it back. I am envious of a bunch of yall as you have some skills on this board. I am a business man and boy if you were close and would make some of these I sure in the heck would jump in there with you! I would naturally have to see if it would fit and would volunteer my H3 as I noticed your H3 is white and black may be different! So with that being said send me one and I can check it out for you.

Actually, I'm under contract on a house in Charlotte and will be moving as soon as my house sells.
I'm still trying to figure out all of the logistics. I'm wheeling the H3 and my jeep this weekend, so hopefully it will give me more test time on the trail.

I am on my way to Sherriffs next weekend to pick up some wheels in Charlotte. This weekend in Wilmington is a Hummer Happening if your out and about come wheel there. Bring a winch bumper and sell about ten of them! I can help with the logistics and selling as i live on the beach in NC. So maybe if your in Charlotte next weekend I will say hey!

REDLYNER; Would it be too much to ask for you to provide the dimensions of each piece of plate you cut out? It would sure save the rest of us some time because I LOVE your idea and it's my next project. I'm almost ashamed that I didn't think of that idea first it's so simple 
That's WHY I love this forum!!!!
