HHR SS Chrome Grill.
 
Does anyone know where I can get a chrome grill for my SS?

Welcome to the site. That must be you i see when I'm over in Bremerton. Is it Victory red?:thumb:

I haven't seen a chrome one or any one for that matter for the SS. I would like to see the same design in a nice metal, powdercoated mesh, like Mercedes has.:D

Don't think they make one.

Some of us have toyed with the idea of painting them to match other color coding trim, maybe the chrome paint for plastic will work with a couple of coats.
You could also take them out and replace with chrome mesh.

I've thought about this and there are a couple of threads regarding this.

There are several sources for plating the black plastic grill. Most turn around times are fast so you might consider getting a chrome finish on your grill.

Yea, that's me in Bremerton. only 1 other red one on the Kitsap side. My wife has a black one.

Do you have any names for those chrome platers? They would be appreciated.

Isn't the SS grill "plastic", like all other HHR's?? If so, a regular plater CANNOT plate the plastic.....it's a special "layering" process. But I would be interested in also knowing the names of platers of plastic.

I do have another idea for you. You might consider this product to wrap the existing grill. But I would contact them via email or phone and ask necessary questions for your application. I have found they are very responsive.

I have used this company's various products a number of times. While expensive, they produce a product far superior to the competition. Look around the site, you will be amazed.
