    I've posted this before. But figured I put an updated one up. I stay pretty organized and even have a binder in the car with similar logs, order history, and work invoices every time I go to Toyota. Enjoy! (or cry... you decide) :D

    Debating on debadging the Prii.

    I don't want to deal with the holes so just thinking of removing badges without the holes.

    Does the rear prius logo have holes? What about the hybrid side logos?

    Anyone??

    Just wondering because of the issue with the fast blinker issue. If it's a plug and play, perfect I'll take a set. Link where you bought them? Cheers!

    Becareful on smog check. It is required by law in CA to have hybrid smog starting this year. I think they hookup a connector to the OBD2 and get data from there. They also do a visual check of the engine. Automatically your will fail without CARB sticker. Maybe I am wrong

    Do you have to do wheel alignment after installing the front sway bar?

    According to Toyota, any time you disturb a suspension part you have to do an alignment. So yes.

    Yes, I strongly recommend getting an alignment after any suspension work

    Yes, but allow some time for the components to "settle in" before getting it aligned.

    @Xterra72

    I did a complete debadge. Well... the cheap way. Carbon fiber wrapped back beam and put decal replacements on sides. Each badge has 2 holes to cover.

    In the beginning when looking... an Auto shop quoted me 500 to plaster them smooth, including toyota emblems. Then to paint match afterwards. Was too much for me...

    Toyota has a procedure to settle in the suspension prior to alignment, including roll the car back and forth, bouncing up and down, opening/closing doors, etc.

    Do you recommend any additional breaking in?
