The time has come that I need to redo the hubcaps and stock grill.

Some of the inside of the area where the plastic lug nuts are have peeled a bit and what not.

I used whatever white gloss was at home depot, and it looks much better than that crappy plastic grey chrome, but I want to repaint it and try to match the stock color.

how can I do this?

 

By eye, unless you are willing to go to an auto paint supply store and get a color match.

I didn't know that hubcaps and grills came in white.

I would think about getting some of the newer rattle can spray paint for plastics.

 

You can't buy stock paint for an hhr? I thought all cars you could?

They don't come in white. I painted them white because the grey chrome looks dumb on a white car. It only works on silver or grey hhr's imo.

I used rattle can before. I wanted to take it a step further with matching paint.

I'm gonna call a dealership and ask.

I thought stock touch up paint was a thing though?

 

2010 Ice White , WA 703 S , would be your paint code! I've ordered paint from this supplier, awesome results!!

2010 Chevrolet Hhr Colors of Touch Up Paint

You will need to spray a clear coat to bring out the shine!! I used Duplicolor clear gloss it turned out awesome!


These are similar but not aerosol cans

I didn't understand that you wanted to match the body color.

A paint & body shop would be able to mix some up or sell you the right color. Either from matching or from reading your RPO label. They would most likely do the job for you, too.

 

And you need to use a plastic primer to keep it from cracking, or just redo it every year.
