Question Too late for August Feature HHR??

Thought I would post a few pics of "Bob" at some local landmarks.

Looking towards downtown from the east.


These were taken from the rubble of the old Busch Stadium looking into the new Busch Stadium.









This was at Ted Drewe's, a St. Louis favorite for frozen custard. They have another location that's on Rt. 66 (Watson Rd.).

These were taken by this truck we saw on the way to Ted Drewes.

This is my favorite.

This was taken in Kiener Plaza downtown facing east.


Had to double park for this photo. One space either way and, no picture. you can see just a bit of the minivan that was parked there at the back of Bob.

Well I know I don't have as many mods as many have but let me know what you think. I'll add more pics, interior and other stuff in the next couple of days.

More will be revealed!!

You are correct!

Didn't hold well on the right. Had same trouble around the windows. Trying to decide if I still like it enough to buy more 1/4" chrome.

I'm hoping a company I've gotten a few stainless pieces from come out with some soon. I'm really happy with their other products. they're not cheap but its all stainless steel. I have them on the corner reflectors and also on a few interior spots. Pics of those coming soon!

i used 1/8 also around the tail lights as well

cleaning w denatured alcohol or acetone really helps w the stick

if you can find the 3M glue promoter that is the best stuff to use. really hard to find that stuff.

i would love stainless around the wheel wells and around the front and back tail lights. a company called JJ's does it for pick ups and large semis but just hasnt done anything for an HHR yet

they also make front window stainless visors. none yet for HHR as well
Yeah I meant the 1/8. Remember we had a long distance talk on the phone about doing this a few months ago. Did just as you advised then. What worked for you just didn't work for me.

Looks good Mike...nice background settings.

I used the 1/4" and it worked just fine on mine. Just cleaned it with alcohol prior and attaching and pressed firmly while attaching. Have had no problem with it coming loose or even separating at the seam. Happy with it until something permanent comes along.
