I always thought your grill was outstanding on your car. I'll check it out tomorrow, better lighting.

i really don't like any of the billet grills , when compared to the original , if the original was chrome. i don't know where gm came up with that silver painted looking crap. i forget what they call it. i call it crap. i do like your black painted grill , but you need to paint the radiator , and probably everything behind the grill. i believe flat paint would be least noticed. if you could get the grill powder coated it may be more durable. prep work is very , very important for painting , powder coating , plating. the original chrome grill is one of the best features on the hhr , in the catdaddy's opinion.

Its the flash shining back from the radiator in the pic. Everything is already black behind there.

Todd I think it looks Awesome Black

In normal lighting (no flash) it will look perfect.

Can't wait to see it in person.

Todd, looks better in the pics posted by Angie but I still like the contrast of the other better. Either way you still will have a hot ride

Hey Todd,

Although I personally like the original style better the "ALL" Black look's Great also! The nice thing about the all black version is it is something that you created and no one else has! You could become SoCals "Grill Whore" #2 !
