Product Description
Six-Piece Stainless Front Bumper Trim with Center Piece for the Hummer H2, 2003-2009 (HV43008)
HV43008 is the middle option among QAA's front bumper trims for the Hummer H2. It has six pieces, and its catalog note sets it apart in three words: "Includes center piece." The kit is listed for the H2 4-door SUV, model years 2003 to 2009, and every piece is polished 26-gauge 304 stainless steel made in the USA.
Where it sits among the three
QAA catalogs a five-piece kit, HV43007, with no special note, and a seven-piece kit, HV43009, noted "Includes Z grill." This six-piece kit is the one whose note calls out a center piece. The catalog doesn't explain exactly what that center piece covers or whether the seven-piece kit also has one, so open the photos on all three listings and compare them side by side. That is the most reliable way to choose, and we're happy to talk it through by phone if the pictures leave a question.
Fitment
The fitment row is the Hummer H2, 4-door SUV, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009. No package or trim restriction is attached. Before ordering, check your year and hold the photos up beside your H2's front bumper.
How it mounts
Pre-cut pieces with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape install directly over the existing surface, so nothing is drilled and the bumper stays on the truck. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle.
Working with a center piece
A center piece gives you a natural starting point. Clean the whole bumper face, remove any wax or tar with a degreaser or rubbing alcohol, and let it dry fully. Fit the center piece first with the liner on and check it's level from straight ahead. Once you're satisfied, peel and press it into place. The other five pieces can then be positioned outward from it in the order the photos show, so the layout stays even. Test each before peeling, press firmly along the full length, and give every piece a final firm pass when you're done. The Installation tab has guidance on temperature and cure time.
About the steel
Polished 304 stainless carries its shine in the metal, not in a plated layer, and 26 gauge is a thin sheet that lies close to the bumper. For care, rinse off bugs before they dry, wash with mild soap, and dry with a soft towel.
Other front-end parts
Beyond the three bumper kits, the H2 sheet lists HV43011, a two-piece brush plate accent, and hood pieces such as HV43006, a ten-piece hood accent package. Check each listing for fitment and photos.
Count the pieces as soon as the package arrives; there should be six, including the center piece. Leave the liners on until each one has been test-fitted, because fresh tape picks up dust quickly and bonds best when clean.

Installation tips: Front Bumper Trim
- Unpack all 6 pieces and match each one to its position on the vehicle, using the product photos, before fitting any of them.
- Each piece mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, so clean and dry the mounting surface first; the tape needs paint or trim free of dirt and wax.
- Align the piece and press it firmly into place directly over the existing surface, working along its full length so the tape bonds evenly.
- Fit one piece at a time and compare each with the product photos and the pieces already in place.
These are general tips. Follow any instructions packed with your kit if they differ.
