Well the body shop it went to is owned by a freind of a freind so thats going to be my plan, also hope to get sprayed lower half a new colour. blue still uper half. White or somethig diffrent on the lower half . depens how much they are going to charge me . I run with full moons in the summer time and love the old school look . Maybe a diffrent shade of blue . Open for ideas also thanks for the info on the ss bumper cover and I would love to see your ride when it done Mr Lasater . I have a project truck that I need to finish some day. Took a 86 chevy truck change the front body to mid 90 and then put a 1 ton cab and chasie frame under her with 1/2 ton running gear. That is letting me to put a almost a 11ft fleet side bed on it . I took two bed and made one supper long one. like i said some day.

 

I don't know the color name but I had a loaner Cruise and it was a very lite powder blue metallic that might match up for a nice two tone

 

My wife and I just bought a new cruise and I was thinking the same thing it a light blue.

 

wellgot to see the cost to fix my hhr 1400.00 plus the cost to fix the front end that out of wrack . Look like I will get to put a ss front end on it my cost is like 440.00 for the diffrerence. ( front bumper cover and the enter bumper impact part) stilll trying to get them to spray the lower half white , so far they say they wont do that.

 

paint is paint but the door jambs and such cost a lot of time and tape and prep work so its the color change that they don't want to deal with

 

Your repair guy might not realize it, but the LT grille won't fit with the SS bumper. Make sure you add an SS grille to that. Also, have you heard from the insurance company yet? They most commonly write it off for this much damage.

 

I will be doing the grill my self to save some out of pockit cash .

 

Walk, what a bumm(p)er.

Perhaps you could consider this: http://image.shutterstock.com/displa...r-1273563.jpg:

No upgrades needed. And it would take a heck of a beating.

This one really cracks me up:

Didn't mean to make light of your situation. Just couldn't resist. Glad your accident wasn't any worse.

 

Had a truck with a bummper like that and a jeep with a 6" pice of pipe it would take a beating. And I like the first photo you listed cant open the second one up (iam at work ) will try later . Hope to order grill monday and the lower one the week after or so. Cant deside if i like the black one or chrome??????????????????????????? The only other shiny stuff would be my full moons?

 

Whatever mods you do be sure and come up to the HHR NATS in August!!
