Buy a powder coated CGS intake from The HHR Store.

The most important Mod is to protect your lower radiator, so I vote lower Grille!

Definitely need the lower grille area taken care of. If it gets damaged, that's not a warranty issue.

Depends on what you're into...the increased stereo tunes or a little more zip going down the road. Personally I like the CGS.

Well, Cap Howdy is my man! So I say Subs. And I mean two!! I have two Sony 10"s that will deafen you, However, you need to change the head unit, and go with a couple of amps. Around $2000, if you want to do it right. Don't want to go to that expense, then I say Grille, nice Billet grille, upper and lower, around $300. If you have a little $$ go for rims and tires, 20" package around $2500. If you are broke..like me, after doing all this. You can lower is with Eicbach springs for around $400. Tint front windows for around $60. Little stubby anteanna(sorry spelling) for real cheap. But remember they look so good, the most important thing is keep them clean and waxed. Todd (Uma)

I don't see that listed on your site. How much is that? Also can you get a grille package for less than $110?
