The one that is all one smooth flow. Like this one that I don't think is available anymore. Maybe it is, not sure.



Windshield Sun Visor like the one that is no longer available.

Others I won't say, as I will be doing them custom myself and am no longer giving out my ideas until I am ready to unveil them first. That won't happen again.
I'll check with my Fiberglass guys and see if they make one, it wouldn't be that difficult if we had a few that wanted it, maybe I'll start a poll!

An affordable hood would be great as we currently have 0 options unless you go totally custom.

I would stop dreaming as little more will be made for the HHR. With it going out of production companies will see little reason to invest in a car that is no longer made.

The next thing is go out and buy what is out there now and not later. Many things will dry up in the next 5 years.

I see this at work with the many companies I work with. Investment stops on most out of production cars as people who just buy them new usally spend the most money on items. The older vehicles often need more work to keep them going and more money goes into up keep. Note this is daily drivers. Even with the sheer number of pick up trucks you would be suprised how often I find part even for the 70's Chevy trucks get discontinued.

I also went through this with the Fiero too. They stopped building them in 88 and by 1993 many of the common aftermarket items were gone. You could find them on the secondary markets like E bay and swap meets but at a mark up.

I would think we need to look at what he already has available for the SSRs, and think about what we would like for the HHR. The reason I say this is because he already knows the companies that he is dealing with, they have dealt with him, and the parts are similar, to an extent.

I still sell alot of parts for the SSR and they have been out of production since 2006!
They still sell Custom parts for the Prowler too, and it's been out of production for longer than the SSR!

Since we're wishing and dreaming, I'd like a front end kit to make it look like the '48 Sub....
