Installed a Progress Tech rear Anti-Roll bar today. It would have been a simple task but one of the guide plates which have the nuts tacked in place was off just enough to drive me crazy. Once I figured out the problem it was a cinch. I could tell a difference with just the 2 mile test drive. I can't wait to get her out in some twisties.
) Mine has been on for over a year and I got it used...... No issues and the car handles like it's on rails. Keep checking the torque and/or use some loctite.....

Dear, should I ask how you know this?
Shush you... just because your HHR runs doesn't mean you can pick on me. cries.

Thanks for the tips, I'll keep a check on the torque.

GMPP CAI lid Before / During, & After
Before: Note the amount of Orange Peel... I hate orange peel
During: cut-n-buff, I got it about 75% smooth, but still very mild orange peel, but any further would have burnt thru. And it just didn't Pop for me, imo..
After: NOT exactly caring for the chrome-like look, this was my choice of finish for my lid, something different..

VHT* wrinkle plus.... Not for everyone, which makes it more appealing to me..
I sand blasted everything, then powder coated the base to prevent any possible rust issues from developing.
The Lid I shot with VHT* wrinkle plus paint, since it is aluminum, I was concerned about it warping in the heat, baking powder coat..

Back to on topic, had a dream I was driving Paddy on US 129(The Dragon) today, does that count as "doing something" to your HHR?
