I have the middle ones of your three above..I like their looks the best........of course

But something on the Hood is better than nothing IMO.

I would choose either 2 or 3 (I have 3 but my entire hood grille cover is chromed)

My pick would be 3 but chromed. The H3 and H2 beg for chrome IMO.

For bolt on, from what you posted, either the 2nd or 3rd.

I found a set of chromed handles for the H2 cheap, milled down the bottoms to get the angle right, and bolted them on. Cost me way less than buying them, they are original Hummer equipment, make me feel warm and fuzzy, and look great! There are a few members here who have a chrome set for sale still I think (Shortbus maybe?)

Here's a poor quality pic of mine

On the H3, the handles are simply cosmetic, and the hood opens like a standard car with the hinges at the back, unlike the H2. So getting your hands around them is not an issue, unless you are trying to tick off an H3 owner by trying to rip off his hood handles!

I never realized the hood doesn't open like the H2. When I first test drove the H3 I never opened the hood and hadn't really checked out that part of the vehicle. I know one thing.... It's a funny sight watching me try to open the hood of Humzilla...
