    Yeah, I'd do the back diffuser with carbon fiber and even carbon fiber hood like bino's. That'd look good.

    Do all Canadian Prius have "Toyota" above the Prius emblem?

    I'd lose the rear bumper protector though ;)

    Love the black and white combo with the body kit. BTW, can you show just your DRL's lighting up?

    ucsnfu, did you get your blue mirrors from ebay? Really like the mods you did with your prius - simply but looks great and sharp.

    I love the tail lights and the pedals! The tint on the lower rear hatch looks great, along with the black emblems.

    I bought the entire 2011 Prius ground effects kit, they have it on the prius plus packages, not sure if you can buy that part individually though.

    thanks, no, the mirrors a buddy of mine bought from Asia, they're not an exact fit. I just ordered a new set of oem blue tint toyota prius mirrors from Japan. Will take pics of those ones once it arrives and when i have them installed.

    thanks

    Has anyone ever given a definite "benefit" of the blue mirrors? I took mine out of the box today, ironically, cause my body shop has finally done the 1st coat of paint on my car...so probably sometime this month I'll be getting my mirrors put back on after they're thru doing all the stuff to them....and my mirrors are the blue ones with the LED indicator in them.....so I was wondering once more why exactly we do the blue ones. They're really odd to look at initially, and I assume they require some "getting-used-to" by the car owner, since we're not accustomed to looking at blue mirrors.

    I'm not sure which blue mirrors you got

    but mine provides a wide angle view, its water repellent, and reduce glare from headlights behind you. Works just as efficient as the stock auto dim glass feature. I love it :)

    The blue coated mirrors will minmiize the glare with night time driving. I am using my rearview blue coated mirror at present and it is night and day. You also see this in OEM BMW mirrors. Once you have used them, you don't want to go back to non blue coated mirrors when you are driving at night with reflector headlights fitted with HID's, heavy loaded rear and high beams turned on behind you. Planning to get one someday when the price is right.

    I know which one you're talking about, the ones from that Sakura store right ?

    No I didn't, I got mine from a buddy in Taiwan.

    Theses were designed for the Prius, plus all the features it has are awesome and they have the mirror heating feature as well :)
