Wow. That has to be the best stance I've seen on an HHR. Well lunchbox has a sweet stance. But your looks really good. I'm Leary of ever cutting the stock springs.

Rushed back to get a cashier's check in today for my deposit on my new place. Stayed ahead of a TBSS for a little while but he must not have been trying too hard. He went ahead of me when he passed stopped traffic in the right turn only lane at a stoplight.

The Gold Lines front and rear have a pretty decent Stance without cutting coils.

The Coils taper smaller on each end to fit properly on the OEM and HHR Aftermarkets.

Not sure i'd want to be driving on cut off coils on the HHR's.

On Topic, I bought a few adapter wiring harnesses from ZZP this evening for my Supercharger project coming up, one of these days.

I did some measurements today for a ramp or steps to get my dog in and out of the cargo area easier and safer. I'd like to have it stowable underneith the deck lid but according to what I have to work with, lowering may not entirely be out of the question now. I never planned on lowering, just leveling of which I've done but it may not be enough for what I want.

...oh and I cleaned the windows and properly aired up my tires.
