    You should test fit that enclosure with the windows rolled down. After removing the door panel, attach the wire for the window control and roll it down all the way. Then test the fit of the enclosure. (Don't put the enclosure in before you roll the window down!!!)

    Pare! I am guessing your fenders are rolled and pulled? Also, are you running camber to help them tuck in? Love the flush look! @Gaspeed

    Salamat Pare!

    My fronts are rolled and my rears are shaved. I can tuck my wheel and tire in the front with no problem but I can only tuck tires in the rear because the lip of my wheels sits flush with my fenders. I'm still debating if I should do a slight pull in the rear to tuck my wheels because that is the look that I love but the people I talk to keep telling me not to do it because the "Fender to Lip" look is the way to go these days and this was coming from a shop that rolls and shaves fenders all day. Deep inside I still love the "tuck" look but I'll be running the fender to lip look for now.

    No camber for me anywhere. Front and rear are stock with no modifications except for the roll in the front and shave in the rear. Jin from Kyoei USA who has the gold Maverick wheels is able to tuck his wheels in the back because he is running -3 camber plates in the rear.

    Fairly easy to understand the instructions even though it's Japanese. Basically you wipe down clean the inside of your bumper, apply the adhesive promoter, then line the bumper gap fix up with the little bumper notch. It sticks on with 3 tape, which is provided.

    Sorry I did not document this, but I believe there's a video somewhere.

    I loaded my trunk with 4 tires and one doughnut. Needed tires and found a terrific deal in the Sacramento Area.m Got 4 brand new tires for $200.00 plus free mounting plus a lifetime warranty on tires. Business is called Tire and Wheel Zone. Located on 1917 El Camino. A tiny little shop, but good service.. His phone # is:
    916 646 4020. Please no discussions on tire merits, brands etc. Give him a call. He also has a huge Ad in Ebay. I have no fiscal relationship with the his business. Just pleasantly surprised ( for a change) with the deal and Service. To the Moderator: I wanted to post this as a new post but never found the right place. Please feel free to move it, if appropriate. Thanks ANDYPRIUS
    Forgot to mention, these are lionhearted tires that normally sell for $90.00 with a 65000 mile lifespan.
    And the Ad is found in Craigslist (Sacto) NOT EBay. The lifetime Warranty is what I found fascinating. Found that out in the end. Just verbal but most sincere. Happy Prius Tag.

    @aportades, you are gambling by running around so low with no lower grill. You should put some small mesh screen in to keep rocks from damaging your radiator/inverter radiator. ;)
