    I'm wondering if anyone has ever done this or seen a PIP tricked out in terms of ground kits, rims, and such. I haven't seen any at all or I've not found that many in this forum even.

    The regular and PIP look the same. So, all the things that can be done to the regular can be done to the PIP. The only difference is having a charger door, and silver accent pieces, and wheels. So, just imagine the "tricked" out regular Prius with those extra things. The PIP isn't drastically different exterior or interior wise.

    I think with all the rebates on the East Coast you are going to see a lot more people modding them since they would have gotten a 3 or so for the same price. You are off to a good start with the wheels.

    I saw a white one on Sunset with rims, lowered, an exhaust, and that all I could see. It looked pretty cool.

    I thought the front bumper was slightly different? I could be wrong.

    The front bumper is different on the 2011 from the 2012 prius. The PiP just has a different paint trim.
