Great job. I can tell you really have done a lot to your HHR which is impressive. I must admit I personally am not a big chrome fan either. However, you HHr pulls it of nicely.
I would like to see some better pictures of the wood trim. What type of wood was it? From these pictures it looks pretty good but you can't see the details. Also are your mud flaps painted?
Again "Kudos" to the great attention to detail. "Very Nice"

Thanks for the kind words. All the submissions are good I think. In my case, the wood dash is burled walnut stained grey. It is available from Edash. The mudflaps are the factory molded ones. I modified the flanges to fit around the chrome wheel well trim, thats all. If you are interested in getting wood trim, Edashkit.com is the best for price and selection that I found. They offfer the real wood, simulated wood and various other more funky options as well.
