    Hey everyone. Well, I have been looking around the forums for a while now doing some mods here and there. I finally decided after washing it today that it was time to take some pics and show everyone what I have done. Please feel free to ask questions and let me know what you think.

    Mod list so far:
    • Tinted Window
    • Tinted Tail Lights
    • Blacked out Emblems
    • Painted Hub Caps
    • LED interior Lights
    • White bulbs for headlights, parking lights, and license plate
    • Black Leather Interior
    • Radar Detector
    ​

    Coming Soon:
    • Fog Lights
    • Hid's
    • Rims (when its time for new tires)
    ​

    When we first got the Prius:

    +1.

    Looks good much better than stock, but you still need to slam it. I can't count how many times people go all out yet forget to lower their ride. It's the great balancer.

    hahaha yea, it should.....but the place I bought it from only had the 30+

    I have been thinking about it....but first I want to get new rims and also it get a lot of miles put on it so I dont want to mess too much with it while it is under warranty.

    Thanks.....its all about getting it waxed at least once a month

    Oh BTW, I suggest that you lower it first (before rims) so you test which rims/tires will fit in your fender.

    It's a Katzkin black interior kit. Its great came with the door inserts and the center console cover. Looks and feels great.

    We ordered the kit from a local interior guy and he installed it...it really makes the Prius so much nicer

    I couldn't wait, one bolt and it's out, plus when I did get to the fog lights, I painted the trim matt black, it came out good, look for a picture I posted awhile back in the fog light thread

    I found the picture....it looks really good. Could you possibly share what you did? (as far as the preparation and painting) Also, if you remember, what paint you used?
