to my knowledge not yet
just the 1/8 or 1/4 inch crome you get at the auto part stores in rolls of 10 to 12 foot lengths
no metal or stainless chrome rings yet

ive seen his stuff
hes a real sweet guy,,, real cheap
2 small 3m stainless rings around the small bumper lights- $33 shipping free- wonder why
2 (not 4 so you can do the same up front) small flat pieces of stainless for bumper posts- $31- shipping free- of course (you can do this urself for less than $15 if you dont have the 3M tape and that will last longer than just this and if you total up the actual cost it would be like $3 and your time)

you can buy stainless in your town even at junk yards for lil to nothing, cut, smooth the edges and polish and buy a roll of 3M tape for $10 that will do alot of these. the rings around the tail lights and small lights on the bumper will come from someone more reputable and a better price or package price for all the exterior trim

this guy pieces out everything including the inside trim and it is way too much for what he offers
total up what he offers and you will see it is not cheap

for me i am waiting to see what happens

I am with Cj on this. I am waiting for someone to produce or sell the chrome rings as an aftermarket item that is reasonable. Until then I will keep on using the chrome strips with 3m.

I've gotten several of their items and am very please with the quality. I have use their relector rings and also their a/c and defroster sets, door handle rings and speaker rings. I like the look much beter than the chrome trim and when they do have rings for the tail lights, I will replace my chrome trim with that. It is a polished stainless steel with a mirrow-life finish. Looks great.

They are considering doing the rings for the tail lights but nothing yet.

Hope this helps.

he should offer a package for all the stainless for the HHR and not just in those lil pieces.
I like his stuff just think he is trying to nickel and dime us or more like $1 and $5 us or maybe $10 and $20 us is more like it

A complete set deal would be a good thing. For them and us.
