Product Description
Hummer H2 2003-2009 Stainless "HUMMER" Rear Bumper Letters with Two Accent Pieces, 8 Pieces (HV43001)
The rear bumper of a Hummer H2 carries the brand name, and HV43001 is a way to make those letters shine. QAA describes this eight-piece kit as "HUMMER" rear bumper letters and two accent pieces. Spelled out, that is six letter inserts plus two accents, all cut from 26-gauge 304 stainless steel, polished to a mirror finish and made in the USA. The listing covers the H2 4-door SUV for model years 2003 through 2009, seven years on a single fitment row.
What "letter insert" means here
The catalog lists the part type as Letter Insert Graphics. The catalog doesn't spell out exactly how each letter meets the bumper's existing lettering, and it doesn't describe where the two accent pieces sit, so the product photos are the guide for both. Study them before you start so you know which piece goes where.
Mounting
Each of the eight H2 emblems mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape over the existing surface, so nothing is drilled or removed. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without harming the Hummer's surface.
Letters are small and easy to set crooked, so take your time. Clean the lettering area well, since a rear bumper collects road grime and wax, then let it dry completely. Lay the eight pieces out in order on a towel, spelling the word, with the two accents set aside. Test each one in place with the liner still on. When you're happy, peel and press one letter at a time, working left to right, and press firmly over each piece once all eight are down. Avoid a pressure washer on the new letters for the first while so the adhesive can fully bond. The Installation tab has more on prep and temperature.
Building out the rear of the H2
The H2 sheet cross-lists twenty other parts, several of them for the back of the SUV. HV43012 is a three-piece rear bumper accent noted "Includes Cut Out for HUMMER logo," which is worth looking at alongside these letters. HV43010 is a one-piece tailgate accent, and two rear deck "H2" emblem kits are listed: HV43020, noted "Polished & Brushed Stainless Steel," and HV43026, noted "Polished Stainless Steel." HV43005 is a one-piece license plate bezel. Check each listing's photos and fitment before ordering.
Is this the right kit?
Confirm the vehicle is an H2 from 2003 to 2009 using your records, and compare the bumper lettering on your SUV with the photos. If the lettering looks different, or something on the bumper has been replaced, call first. The kit is eight pieces; count them when the package arrives so nothing goes missing during the install, and keep the small letters in their bag until you are ready to lay them out on the towel.

Installation tips: Letter Insert Graphics
- Unpack all 8 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.
