Styles

• There are a variety of exhaust tip styles to choose from for the HHR, including round, oval and even square. However, owing to the HHR's unique, retro styling, it's probably best to stick with a more conventional round or oval design. You can also get dual outlet exhaust tips and single outlet tips, depending on the look you are going for. Likewise, there are highly polished tips for a brighter look and more muted-looking brushed tips for a more subtle appearance

Installation and care

• Installing a stainless steel exhaust tip on an HHR is usually a very simple process that even the mechanically un-inclined can accomplish in a few minutes with the right tool. Generally, the tips will simply be slid onto the existing exhaust pipe and then tightened with the supplied bolts. On occasion, a tip may have to be welded on, in which case a reputable muffler shop will be able to do this for you. To care for stainless steel tips, simply clean them regularly and polish them with a high quality stainless steel metal polish and a clean, dry rag.
