editor's note: CQ
This Hummer H2 has been customized from top to bottom. Starting with the outside of the truck, we smoothed and painted every piece of trim, bumpers and running boards white to match the rest of the exterior. We added the lambo doors by LSD Doors and the 22” Dub wheels with the optional floating spinner. Then added lots of chrome to the outside as well. It has new headlight housings and new fog light housings with H.I.D.s in both. Under the hood we added an air intake by K&N and a high output alternator with an isolator to charge the optima battery under the hood and the Kinetik batteries in the rear of the truck for the stereo. We also added a large power supply to help keep those batteries charged when parked at car shows as well. On the inside we completely stripped and re-installed all new interior. White suede and silver gator headliner, White gator and silver gator seats and door panels. We did the dash in a white and black marble as well as the overhead console, parts on the door panels, the middle console and a few other miscellaneous parts too. We gave the rest of the interior the same treatment as the outside by smoothing and painting all the plastic pieces and adding lots of chrome. The stereo consists of an Alpine double din head unit with built in Bluetooth and navigation. That is connected to an Audio Control Matrix line driver to boost the sound going into the MTX Thunder Elite Amps. There are three of the MTX Thunder Elite amps powering to MTX 9500 15” Subs in the custom fiberglass, painted enclosure and the MTX speakers in the doors, mounted in custom fiberglass door pods wrapped in the same silver gator as the rest of the interior. In each of the four rear pillars are skulls that have been molded into them, each holding a small 3” screen in their mouths. They are connected to same video source as the four other Alpine headrest monitors as well. This Hummer is a showstopper at every show it attends!
