New to the board.

Hello everyone,

I am new to the site and am waiting for delivery of my 2008 HHR SS.
It should be here on July 1st or 2nd.

I ordered it as follows:

41u Black exterior
19c Ebony interior
1au46 SS turbo
CF5 Power sunroof
G63 Roof Rails
G85 limited slip
mm5 5-speed manual
uq3 pioneer high performance 7 speaker system
us9 6 disk changer
u2k XM radio
1ss SS Package
47a double smoke accent stripe

I am super excited about getting it, but I have not been able to find any pictures of SS's in Black with double smoke accent stripes.
Does any one have these color combinations? If so does anyone have any pictures they could post so I can see what it will look like. I guess I will see soon enough, but the anticipation is killing me.

Anyway, I am glad to be here and look forward to learning about your experiences with the HHR and sharing my experiences when I get mine delivered.

i could be completely wrong on this, but aren't the smoke accent stripes black and not really show up on a black car?

at our dealer they had a black 2LT and on the sticker it said it had a smoke accent stripe but on the car i didn't see a stripe at all. Not even a black on it anywhere, so i don't know what was up with that.

I sure hope that is not the case since I paid $95 extra bucks for the stripes. I was told by the dealer that the smoke stripes were a "charcoalish" color, however he had no color samples to show us.

They may look like "Shadow" stripes. You might not see them from all angles. I think they'll be cool. I'm think of getting them on my black HHR.

That would be kinda the look I was going for. I hope thats exactly what they look like.

Still hoping somebody has pics to post though.
