    Hey everyone! (y)

    I know the Prius has a lot of shiny plastic on the outside. Has anyone had any paint protection on their parts yet? If you do please post!

    I recently had my Prius detailed and now everything looks all new again. Getting some paint protection next month.

    Check out the swirls before and after :eek:

    While what I am about to share was not done on a Prius, it is still in the spirit of the ask;).

    We ended up doing this on the wife’s 2017 RX450h:

    Unless you are looking from behind, you’d never see the ending or if anything was there:).

    Works for us(y).

    Did you get like a half front end paint protection or the full? I’m thinking of getting my Prius wrapped then once I’m bored of the color then I’ll paint protection it... or do reverse!

    Paint protection is pricey than wrap?
