I knew that they made one but I couldn't find pictures of it. I would like to see it. If I like it better the the Carriage Works one I might put it on instead. cjnappo 01-15-2006, 12:23 PM hope this works IMG]http://i45.photobucket cjnappo 01-15-2006, 12:25 PM http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f56/cjnappo/CES2006026.jpg cjnappo 01-15-2006, 12:26 PM sfxperformance has it for sale it has a pic but cant get it to enlarge captain howdy 01-15-2006, 12:49 PM I still like the Carriage Works one the best out of all of the billet grills so far. ;) It doesn't look bad but it's way overpriced. :eek: jerij 01-15-2006, 04:02 PM It doesn't look bad but it's way overpriced. :eek: Ya think?! :-) jerij SIHHR 01-15-2006, 04:33 PM http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f56/cjnappo/CES2006026.jpg SIHHR 01-15-2006, 04:34 PM Sorry guys I attempted to add the link of the picture and it came up very big. cjnappo 01-15-2006, 08:25 PM i dont care how much it is im getting it i love that grill i think it sets the whole thing off sweet cant wait probably going to take a couple of months to save the money though captain howdy 01-15-2006, 08:43 PM i dont care how much it is im getting it i love that grill i think it sets the whole thing off sweet cant wait probably going to take a couple of months to save the money though Go for it! :beer: It will be cool to see it on a street driven HHR instead of a showcar. ;) chuktaylor2 01-18-2006, 11:05 AM I must admit i like it but id have to have the matching lower piece and it's way north of what i'd prefer to spend. I planned on going with the carriage works setup until i found one i liked much more (maily because of the side borders). http://www.autotrucktoys.com/chevy_hhr/Stull-Chevy-HHR-Billet-Grille-P10459C0.aspx captain howdy 01-18-2006, 11:17 AM I must admit i like it but id have to have the matching lower piece and it's way north of what i'd prefer to spend.

I'll put 100% faith in that, especialy after seeing the price. It looks cool though. :beer: shugga 01-18-2006, 12:42 PM Captain, What do you mean by cut the bars out of the stock grill? SoCalHHR 01-18-2006, 12:44 PM I bet you anything your going to have to cut the bars out of the stock grill to make it look like that... Nope. The Stull grilles are welded to the included frame. Their price includes both upper & lower grilles also. If you like the style it's a great bargain! captain howdy 01-18-2006, 01:23 PM Captain, What do you mean by cut the bars out of the stock grill? The Carriage Works grill I got requires me to take the grill out, seperate the grill and frame, cut off the top bar of the grill, reattach the top bar to the fame, reinstall the frame and top bar to my HHR, then attach the billet grill to the frame. To my eye it looks like you would have to kind of do the same thing to that grill, chop out the center bars instead of just cut off the top. :confused: Look how the ribs are seperate from the edge and forward of the edge. I could be wrong it's just a guess. :confused: Nope. The Stull grilles are welded to the included frame. Their price includes both upper & lower grilles also. If you like the style it's a great bargain! Are you 100% sure? :confused: Remember I called Carriage Works and the lady told me their grill was 100% bolt on with no cutting required. :roll: It seems odd to me that I paid a little bit more for my Carriage Works combo and it would require all the additional work on my part and is made out of less material and less labor put into it. I still like the Carriage works one the best, IMO I think it looks cooler without the frame. :cool: shugga 01-18-2006, 04:04 PM Nope. The Stull grilles are welded to the included frame. Their price includes both upper & lower grilles also. If you like the style it's a great bargain! If somebody ends up buying this, please update this thread to confirm! I think it looks great and the price can't be beat. It almost sounds too good to be true... SoCalHHR 01-18-2006, 04:24 PM Are you 100% sure? :confused: Nope. :red: I just called them. Theirs is a "cut-n-fit" job too. :mad: Guess I won't be carrying those either.... I can't understand why aftermarket companies would go the "cheap route," then still expect consumers to pay this kind of money - while they: a) destroy their stock grille shells and b) do all the work themselves! I'm still looking around for a vendor to build us grilles. If and when I find them; you can bet they will be direct replacement, full-frame, bolt-in designs, that install in 30-minutes or less (like the brand we already sell). ...end of rant. http://forums.ngemu.com/images/smilies/Animated/hdbash.gif captain howdy 01-18-2006, 04:30 PM Are you 100% sure? :confused: Nope. :red: I just called them.

At least you spoke to a more knowledgeable person at Stull than I did at Carriage Works. :D |
