I have contacted him and he is getting all of the info on what they can do for us. Different designs..custom vinyl? all of that. He said he'd like to know how many are interested before he dives head first. The fact that its made for the hhr and isnt a generic decal makes me want it even more.

I am not a fan of woody kits, but this one looks much better than the one on hhrclub.

It's classic looking but correct for muscle cars. Seeing as how the HHR is designed after a 49' Suburban I beleive it would benifit more from a 50's flare. Pin stripes and flames. I would love to paint my HHR flat black with a flame and pinstripe job. :thumb:

not trying to offend anyone, but IMHO if you are going to stick vinyl all over an hhr you should stick to something more ricey. pin stripes would be ok, but excessives like the stipes are just a bit much if you ask me. ghost flames might look good, but not the traditional painted red/orange.

Your definety not offending me. I couldn't agree with you more about taking perfecty good american vehicles and making them look rice. I was huge into Mustangs and that was one of my hugest gripes. That someone would actually take a mustle car and want to make it look like a Civic. I am going to do vinyl ghost flames. If I dont like the way they look I can take them off just as easy as I put them on. I was thinking of a pin up and pinstripe design on the hood but then I figured that would be overkill.

I'm with you guys. Which is exactly why I asked him about the "Different designs..custom vinyl?" He still hasn't emailed me back again. I'll post again when he does.

Don't want to be different, but I like the top stripes.

I think afterwhile you'll see a lot of HHRs looking different.

Sort of like a Harley, if you want to have your own look,

you have to experiment, take chances, be an individual.

Not all will like. Many have said they don't like the woody look.

I think with a lighter looking car it would work, not on my Black HHR LT2.

I've seen a couple creamy silver colored PTs that have the Woody Package,

and its different than the plane jane model. Just a comment...

Have a good weekend. Mr. B. :bow:

You guys are all kidding, right? I've been into the sport compact scene for many years now, and I have yet to see a single import car (I am assuming that is what you are referring to when you guys use the derogatory term "rice") with racing stripes.

While the sport compact scene might not interest most of you, you could all learn a thing or two....while the HHR is built after a 40's suburban, it has the engine of today's sport compact cars. If we look toward them for inspiration, I think we'll easily be pushing some formidable horsepower from this little powerplant, while getting excellent fuel economy. Making a V8 go fast is easy, what about a 4 banger? Well, my nissan (rice, I guess) makes an impressive 214 whp with bolt ons (no forced induction). Doesnt sound like much, but with the weight, it gets 0 - 60 in under 6 seconds, 1/4 mile in the high 14's, and gets 28 mpg.

Now I know this post makes me sound offended, and Im not. My HHR isnt going to be just another PT cruiser, though! Fact is, although I dont like them, racing stripes are american as Apple Pie.

Amen! :beer: But they are meant for muscle cars. ;) I do see alot of single offset racing stripes in the import scene. :confused: They are used but in a different way. :thumb:

I think I would rather have painted on stripes then vinyl

exactly- now, i had an srt4 with them on and i considered them ricey, but they fit the car, the hhr doesnt need stripes, pinstripes maybe, but not stripes
