Hummer H2 For those who like a little more gleam to their Hummer, the H2 offers a similar rugged look as the H1, but as a lower cost, and with more added features, making it almost a massive luxury SUV.

Well boys, when in need build your own.

Made a drawing of what I wanted, sent it off for a quote, had a company in Florida do it, had them in 9 days. Friend cut the brackets on water jet.

These are gorgeous. Nice work!

Stainless? If not, are you powdercoating them?

Thanks for the info. Not many people are capable of making something this nice.

Just out of curiosity, how did you attach the brackets (plates) to the step? Tack welded or some other way?
Can't see anything in the pic, so guessing they are tacked on from underneath in 3 or 4 spots?

My steps attach to the rock rails where the round factory steps attach. The round ones get removed. I will post pics when installed

OK, but how did you attach the vertical mounting brackets that are part of the step, to the horizontal step itself?
