Check on e-bay, They have a few people who sell prepainted Hummer bodies, kind of expensive though. I would recommend a proline hummer body though, they are pretty thick, you really don't even need a roll cage with them. Just my opinion.

dont get a hummer body everyone has them and they arent the best looking suv. Get a escalade or something, im sure if you take it to your LHS they will paint it and everything, i know mine does it all for 20 bucks
