Are the hood grills interchangeable on the HHR and HHR SS? I would like to get rid of the bowtie and that center plastic and just have full mesh grill de-badged. I'm thinking of using one of the aftermarket non-SS grills if they will fit.

 

They are not interchangeable. The grill of the SS sits further down into the bumper.

 

Thanks, I did notice that, but I thought it might just be a bumper design and that the hoods were the same. I guess I'm going to have to get something made up for me out of a stock grill.

 

No, the hoods are the same, just the grill of the SS is a bit taller, hence the redesigned bumper (notice indentation on top of bumper) for the SS.

 

So you're saying that they Are or Are NOT interchangable?

 

They are not unless you want to somehow mod a base HHR bumper to fit on the SS.

 

Since you asked about two parts and to avoid the definition of "they": the hood is interchangeable, the grill is not.
