Hi & thanks! Wish I had some of you as my neighbor! Lol.. Don't know what to do next on my HHR... Need mats before winter & a good detailing... How do you feel about caliper covers? Just did all new front brakes, rotors, calipers & in a month they're rusting and look awful through my new tires & rims! Paint? Covers? Opinions appreciated for this lil lady. Thanks!

WOW! Yours look great! And Id love to have them painted but the estimate was $280!

I am a 53 yr young lady without someone to direct me with this sorta thing. I know some but not as much as I'd like.

thank you for sharing your picture! I love a red hot rod!! Just something about red thats sharp!

It's about 20 dollars worth of paint , Some cleaning fluids , Tape .
The rest is prep work .
Hopefully someone close by will help the bahbushkah dial in her HHR . If i was closer i'd do it for you , It's a day of garage work.

A day in a the garage is better than a day at work .

No covers. Painted with a $4 can of spray paint. I have the optional Brembo brakes on my SS. Brembo calipers come gray from the factory.
