Tints & Grill Assistance

Good day all,

I have two questions for you guys. First how much did people pay for tints... Im looking at getting them very Dark in the rear and havent decided on how dark i want to go on the driver and passenger doors windows.

Second:

I have seen this grill on ebay... Link is - http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2006-...#ht_1029wt_939

And i was wondering if anyone has this and if so they could take some of their own pictures of it and show me what it really looks like on the car. Yes i know they provide the picture on ebay but i just want to see more of it and different views of it... any help is much appreciated.

I've only got the front two windows tinted, and that was a gift, so can't really give you any help there. I can, however, say that I had my windshield tinted with a ceramic tint which ran $150.00.

As far as the grill goes, check our supporting vendors before resorting to ebay. Maggie at RAS has the same grill. It might total a few bucks more w/ shipping, but I believe that dealing w/ a known and reputable vendor would be well worth the piece of mind (not saying that the ebay vendor isn't).

Here is the link to RAS..........

Sorry, that HHR isn't mine. He was a one time show at a local G2G.

Pretty pricey, but it's one of the nicest grilles out there for the HHR. I guess that you get what you pay for.
