I will check into the pricing to make up regular side stickers.

It is possible to make a smaller one for the rear, but I don't know where that'd fit under the Turbo emblem.
Give me a height you think would work for the rear one and I'll see if it's feasible.

As to different coloured '1's, I think red, white or black are realistic.

Very impressive quality!

It's a bit too busy looking for my taste (I like a clean look and would be someone who would de-badge a car), but the quality that you've put together here is very good.

I think it looks great. All of us HHR SS owners know what "Stage 1" means anyway. If you google it there are many hits due to everyone calling it that. Were not entering a concours car show, and heck 25 years from now nobody will remember whether there was an Offical "Stage 1" name anyway. The rest of the public hardly know about the HHR SS anyway, let alone factory options and their names. I think it looks good. This site is a wealth of ideas, thats what I like about it, keep it up.

Looks real nice. I wonder what an average person is going to think when they see Stage 1? They won't have a clue what it means. Then again, most people probably don't know what SS means either. Most people don't even know what an HHR is.

I know what you're saying. The other day a fellow owner of a "HHR" asked me, "I didn't know the Chevy made a Harley Edition HHR, what year is that"?

Although LNF Turbo Upgrade is the official GM product name, Stage 1 is a defacto term (defacto in this case would be a common reference, but not official term). I personally refer to it as the Turbo Upgrade Kit, but that's just me.

Anyone with an LNF knows what "Stage 1" is in reference to. If I seen "Stage 1" on an HHR SS under the logo, I'd know that it has the kit.

This is the origin of the term, "Chevy" as well. The public created a defacto term by shortening the name Chevrolet... Only later did Chevrolet finally make it official on some of it's advertisements and vehicles.

I think that the Stage 1 logo is a nice addition to the SS badge...

"Chevy" is mentioned multiple times within this official GM ad from 2006

The un-informed will go away thinking they have just seen a stage 1 PT Cruiser.
