Feder Flares

After Many Alterations I Have One More To Do To Say I'm Done.after Deciding Not To Change Tires For A Larger Size,which Would Give Slower Pickup,decided On Fender Flares. A Radius Bumping Out But Mostly Going Down Filling Up That Empty Void Above And Around The Tires.want To Paint Them The Color Of The Car. Flexy Flairs Are Out. They Mostly Go Out And Would Not Work For The Back Door. Those Plastic Flares Should Work If Cut In Two For The Back Door.surface Mount Is A Must Because Of The Back Door.bushwacker And The Like Stuck On With 3m Tape.would Love To Find Something That Works With A Little Altering. Betcha I'm Not The Only One. Any Ideas Guy's Of What Brand And Model Could Work. Do Not Want To Lower The Car With A Family Of 5. Thank's Kelldog

When you type with every word having a capital letter, it is really difficult to read.

I think it'll be tough finding any flares that will fit the HHR contours. Any that don't look right will just be cheesy, I think. I know it's alot more money, but if you really want to close up that gap without losing your utility/capacity, go with air bag suspension and lower it when you want it to look cool & handle well, raise it up some when you're loaded up or on marginal roads!

Those flares were made to fit wider tires. That HHR is still lowered to reduce the gap.
