I've Been Chromed!

I dropped by CJ's home last night and he helped me add some chrome trim to my ride. As in the words of CJ, IT POPS! Unfortunately, I haven't had time to take some pictures yet because of getting ready for the Whole Hawg Weekend in Eufaula, OK, but I'll post some pics as soon as I get a chance. I don't have as much chrome as CJ's, but it definitely stands out. The HHR was just made for chrome trim. The lines on her are there just begging to be aligned with chrome, and if done right, it looks unbelievable! I don't think I stopped smiling all last night. Thanks for your help, CJ. Like I said guys and gals, I'll post some pics just as soon as I can.

Cool...I bet it looks great on that Sport Red. I've got some on my Sunburst Orange and it looks nice as well. Looking forward to the pics.

Except flat black!

Our next HHR is going the total Rat Rod look with flat black paint, rat rod wheels, and of course white hot flames on the front end a la '49 Mercury!

Actually, I found a more realistic example (on a '50 Ford):
