    Yeah, like $30 when I got them. They slip on over the metal. No drilling.

    @sonnyd510 sweet wheels!

    Wait till you have real children, then you'll realize it takes you months just to find time to do a simple mod. Lol

    Damn, @sonnyd510. Let us catch up on the mod. You're out of control. :) Can't wait to see those shoes on.

    hahaha. Too true. Speaking of simple mods, this was waiting for me when I got home. Purchased it here on the PriusChat Shop recently. Shark Fin (below) Shark Fin Antenna for 2010-2015 Toyota Prius - PriusChat Shop.

    Also, I decided against the Duraflex wiper cowl from last week. Returned it earlier today to Extreme Dimensions in OC. #overkill

    I decided to give this a try.
    Applied them over some plastdip in case I'm not feeling it in the AM.

    I'm pretty into it as of this moment.
    Makes me wish he weather would allow me to do the side skirts. Maybe this weekend if im lucky.

    Thoughts?

    I'm a fan, it looks festive & fun. Smart to have plasti dipped prior in case you change your mind down the road.

    Rock it for a while and see how it feels!!

    Definitely won't fit the iPhone 6s Plus. I have the iPhone 6s with a case and it's not wide enough. Not sure about the lgv10.

    Will definitely fit a hot cup of coffee from Starbucks and that's for sure.

    Not today but a couple of weeks ago. One of the best mods I've done to my Prius yet.

    I caught the edge of a trashcan and shattered the glass on my drivers side mirror. I took the opportunity to order Aspheric L and R mirrors from Ebay somewhere in the UK. It's an easy snap in install and they're fantastic! I don't notice any distortion but now have no discernible blindspots. Love 'em!

    Well dang I almost ordered before I heard back from ya! Good thing I didn't. I just went from the Note 4 to the V10 and the wife has the 6s plus. Both phablets so wouldn't work for me if I just wanted to use for cell phone holders

    Priuschat still the best active chatforums. postings are up to date every second or every minute. Its too sluggish at the clublexus and can't get any ideas regarding mods with the GX. I need to be here to get ideas from your mods if you guys don't mind lurking around. hehehe.
    Love to see new priuschat members coming in here and transformed their priuses just like everybody else. I have seen a lot of modded prius out there as well. I always gave in and let them pass or get in to my lane. Just missed my prius everytime I see a modded one. Keep modding you guys. Happy thanksgiving to you all!
