Doing As I'm Told

As per HillsdaleHHR's 'suggestion'...Here are some our pix...hope you enjoy! (The Rest are under Profile)

2006 2LT ALL Factory Options Except:
( OnStar, Sat-Radio, RunningBoards, RoofRack Premium Wheels
None of which I/we wanted )
Bought Used on Feb 23rd and have since added:
* Rear Bumper Cover Protector
* Winter Mats & Premium Mats
* Premium Cargo Area Mat
* Blind Spot Mirrors
* Factory Fit Mud Flaps ( note hand painted lettering )
* HHR Lens for 3rd-eye Brake Light
* Bright Chrome Kick Plates for Thresh-holds x4
* After-Market Bright Chrome License Plate Frames x2
* CHEVROLET Grill & Hood-side Decals
* Southern Comfort Color Matched Rear Air-Dam

* Soon 2B ordered Custom Luggage Trailer
(the dogs need the cargo space)
* Soon 2B ordered CGS Cold Air Intake
(as soon as I can find price like SoCal had)
* Soon to Upgrade Tires and Rims (decision making problem)









The 'Kids' - wasn't until after we got the "H" home did we realize we bought a car that MATCHED our dogs....White/Cashmere...hehehe
They Think Its "THEIR" car, we only get to drive it.
Big Boy is Barnaby, 105# American Bulldog Scotts Style
Little Girl is Frey, 55# American Staffordshire Terrier...figured someone would ask



and the Rest of the 4-wheeled family

Yup Your dogs are cute!! Looks like you have 3 threads all in one. What does your home look like, what kind of pets do you have, and of course your HHR. So are all the vehicles you purchase white or did this just seem to happen? Oh, and good to see you figured out how to post pics too

We used to have all RED cars...to the point my friends started calling Chevy Red "Glenn Red".
One by one those were replaced with the white cars you see now.
Once we owned white, and saw how many SINS it hides,
I fell in love with it...
( sometimes being disabled I get lazy when it comes to washing and detailing )
And as for the dogs being cute... Baby ducks and bunnies are CUTE....
( ya we think they are cute to, but we dont tell the Big-B he
is cute to his face, it make him upset)

Okay White cars, White with brown family, but not a White House?
NO really nice HHR you may not have wanted the running bds, be glad they are there, they will be your HHR's friend.
How old are the (not so cute) manly dogs?
I have 2 Bostons

Barnaby is 4+ and Freya is 2+, both are best guesses seeing as we Rescued them from pounds.
We are Semi-Active in the local Molosser Rescues
(AKA Working/Pit/Bulldogs in layman's terms...
no not all dogs that LOOK like pit bulls ARE pit bulls,
there are no BAD dogs, just bad care-givers)
Oops sorry I tend to preach a bit on that subject.
If youre interested here is a very good page for learning about the different breeds:
http://www.moloss.com/001/ptxt/breed.html

as for running boards, we dont have them, I think from what Ive observed up
here on the frozen tundra, the flaps keep the sides cleaner

She just looks so much younger than him.
Great looking dogs, and I know what you are saying about the owners.
Keep them safe.

Nice badging on the HHR. It matches the era the car's trying to capture and isn't overdone. Clean.

Good looking Bonneville, too. I think that was one of the best looking cars GM ever put out and certainly one of the best of the '90s. Too bad they stopped making them a year ago. Those Northstars in the last ones were killa.

Thank You...that is exactly the look I/we were trying for...
IE Clean but different than the rest.
Does anyone know where to find old-skool rally rims
w/ baby moon center caps? I have found some online but dont know
what offset to get.

I have not seen any "ralley" style wheels that will fit the HHR. They do have a steelie wheel with moons that will fit (not cheap though). There is at least one member here with them, MitzKitty (hope I didn't butcher her name too bad )
