carraigeworks billet grille

If anyone has installed a carraigeworks billet grille (or any other grill that doesn't use the end portion of the grill) and you still have the chrome end pieces (right and left) I would like to get them from you, I'm working on a custom grill and need these pieces. Thanks Dan

I beleive with the Carriage works grill you use only the top portion of the stock grill frame. I'm looking for the right and left remaining pieces of the stock grill frame.

The stock grille is one piece not multiple pieces, there is no frame. Here is how the Carriage works billet works. You remove the stock plastic grille from your HHR. You take the grille apart from the plastic backing and take off the bottom and center supports. You chop off the top bar and sand it down. You reattach the top bar with the plastic backing and then attach the billet part using special brackets. What you are left with is the remaining four bars of your plastic grille plus the metal bottom and center supports. So I am still confused about what exactly you are looking for seeing as how the stock grille is one piece.

I know that you have to chop off the top portion of the stock grill, however, your left with the remaining horizontal bars, at both ends of the horizontal bars they are held together by vertical bars (the outer frame). So basically what I'm looking for is the remaining part of the grill not used after a custom installation. I want to cut out the remaining horizontal bars and be left with the small end frame pieces.
