Photoshop help please

Here is a photo of BadBoy 69's very nice HHR. (hope you dont mind!)
I am going to do something similar to my HHR. I would like for someone to do a photoshop of a three bar grill on this to see what it would look like so I can compare them.
Help me make up my mind, painted grill like bad boys or a painted three bar grill. Thanks in advance, Curly

Here is my stock grill and it just does not cut it. I had already decided I was going to paint my grill White and my mirrors and the black lower grill piece when I saw BadBoy69's. It really does look nice and so much better than mine. So now the quetion is stock painted or 3 bar painted?

half panel, you photo doesn't show up on here, it says it was moved or deleted.

curly, i would go with the full grille painted unless you want to invest the time and do the 3 bar all the way. Not the just cut out the bars way and have gouges out of the sides of the grille. But the cut them out, fiberglass the holes over and do a real pro job.

With a white grille you will see the notches out the sides of yours so much for the 3 bar since it's black behind it.

just my 2 cents.

I would keep the full grill and put the texas flag on the emblam. I like your idea of painting the mirrors and lower bumper piece.

yeah both of them work now, weird, maybe it was just my computer at home...

go all white grille with texas on the front. Painted mirrors and lower bumper looks great.

If my hhr wasn't already black i would do the bumper cover.

I don't think i would have went with the chrome package if it didn't come with the 2LT (or i would have and then decided i didn't want it), so i'd like to find some spare mirror caps at least to paint... The only pieces i like is the chrome grille (sometimes, i'm going to paint a spare as well, switch them back and forth) and the exhaust tip. They could have left my mirrors and handles black...
