New Prius incoming... what do I do with the dog?

I use one from Canvasback that covers the back of the rear seat and the hatch floor - fits perfect! I have two 65 lb. Yellow Labs. Don't know if they make them for the Gen IV yet, but you can always ask.

Would 2 greyhounds fit in the back of a 2016 Prius? They fit just fine in the back of my 2004, can stand upright without a problem. The 2016 looks like the roof is lower.

 

I have a rear seat cover and two d-clips on nylon straps attached to the rear head rests. My dog wears a chest and neck strap harness, and I clip him into both d-clips, which keeps him from tearing up the passenger doors but allows him to lie down. Also keeps him from flying through the cabin during hard breaking or an accident.

 

where did you get the black cover outside in the trunk in the pic.

I bought some indoor/outdoor carpet at the Home Depot and cut it to fit the area. Works great - doesn't unravel and low cost.
The small black mat that has the "Prius" logo on it is the carpet I got from the dealer - it comes out when the dog goes in .

 

Great ideal. What about the bumper the black one.

The bumper cover is the hard stainless steel cover (OEM) that I bought from the PriusShop. I plasti-coated it black with a glass finish. If it gets scratched, I just add more plasti-dip.

 

Yes . I wanted in black but could not find any. I like it.

It's easy to do. The plasti-dip paint is available in many stores (and many colors). If you don't like the look you can peel it off and it will be as good as new.

 

I wanted to paint the black bumper with brighter black color too . You think I can use this kind of paint? Or do you if they have something better. The bumper and the black plastic fog light are ugly.

It would work just fine. It is not something that can take a lot of wear and tear - it scrapes off if scratched. It is a great way to see how it looks without any risk. If you love the color and want it to be forever, then strip it and use "real" paint.
I'm very happy with my plasti-dip!

 

Look great..

Someone here painted the black fog light blanks to match their body colour. See in particular posts #23 and #33:

I really don't see why Toyota insists on leaving these black. Same story with gen 3.

 

You are on point. The color they have is not brighter enough . If you see Corolla bumper or Lexus they have a nicer black bumper than us.
