The Superman Special Chevy HHR!

This is my 2006 Daytona Blue 2.4 LT Chevy HHR. I chose to go with a Superman theme, because I have always been a huge fan all the way back to the reruns of George Reeves (THE ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN). In 1978 I was hooked for sure when Christopher Reeve portrayed Superman. Then last summer as you all know they brought back Superman to the big screen in SUPERMAN RETURNS. Another reason is, the daytona blue matches the suit that Superman wears.

Please give me some feedback on what I should add to turn some heads.

Hello - I don't believe I've seen this car on the forum before. Not sure if you are submitting it for HHR of the month? I haven't seen anyone do a poll on a submission before.

Anyway, I just wanted to say it's a very novel approach and you are very right - it is the perfect superman color. I'd love to know more about how you did the emblems - on the hood, on the grill, etc. The headlights - tint or vinyl? And can we can some closeups too - I can't see the headlights very well. Do you use photobucket or some website where we can click on the photos and see them larger?

Oh my GOSH - I just saw the back window - how did you do that?

In Oklahoma, this car must just FLOOR people - what kind of comments do you get?

I wish you had been on the forum as you were creating this vision of yours, so we could have watched this come together piece by piece - it's such fun that way. I hope you stay around and post lots so we can get to know you.

As far as what more should you do, I can't begin to imagine! Custom plates and wheels? I won't interfere; you're having too much fun.

What's up with the name change? Are you trying to hind your secret identity?

I agree.........either "S" the hood or the grill, but not both.

Why does this thread feel like Dejavu?
