Air?

Alright Alright, I have been working on my HHR now for almost a year, I have black powder'd stock 17's, blacked out billet grill, blacked out windows, blacked out tail piece, custom exhuast, decent stereo, short shifter, custom cold air intake, gold lines, sway bar, stubby int., stubby door locks, dye'd interior items, ect ect ect ect ..

Now I want to go real low!!!

I have been into hot rods my whole life, I have had several bagged cars, my 54 chev would lay frame with plenty of room left in the notch, I even bagged bug a few years ago. But now I would like to bag my daily.... The back of the HHR does no seem to be a problem, throw in a pair of 2600's and a air supply (pump, tank, valves, not the band) and your done. The front on the other hand makes me scratch my head a bit????

I have seen it doen a few times, but it seems there are a hundred diff ways to go?? I took out the stuts last night to see if a set of shock waves would fit, and with out a ton of mods they will not. I have herd of people going with "strut bags" but have never seen pictures and dont know about sizes and shapes???? if any one out there can help me with some idea's or pictures on how to air the front?? possible manufacture of items, parts list, or anything like that.. I am a hands on guy so please dont recommend shops..
I have seen a few kits for the cobalt, but the kits are way over priced, and I am new to the front wheel drive crowd and am not sure if they would work in the H'.

Also any know where to get those carbonfiber rear bumper covers SoCal used to sell???? Been looking for something like that to follow the black out theme.

Thanks For Any Info, you guys have been a big help!!!!!


Plus are than any HHR's in or around Sacramento that would be interested in an all HHR cruise or maybe something like that???

I have the easystreet kit and I love it! Eventhough it says its made for the cobalt, it works and fits great on the HHR. I have 1/2 " tubbing and its VERY quick and responsive. If you can dish out the $$ I deffinately recomend the digital kit. Very worth it.

I'm in Chico and would be interested in an all HHR cruise or G2G in SAC if there are enough of us in this area? A lot of HHR owners around Chico are just car owners and don't seem to be into the fact that thier car is COOOOOL! They should have bought a PT

raise the strut towers and start cutting the inner fender wells so you can lay it out.
