    Checked my average MPG since last oil change (2042 mi), gettin 64.5 MPG.

    Not burning oil yet thanks to not using OEM or Mobil 1 oils & filters w/15,000 OCI :LOL:

    Looks good. I think those have a ET of 45. You should put spacer in the rear and bring that wheel out a bit and it will look pretty clean. Bringing them out to +38 will be pretty close to flush.

    Hello from Romania. Long time lurker here but new user since yesterday.
    I did something to my Prius with my brother in law at his house. A protection mesh for radiator. Nothing fancy but useful.
    This was the mesh.

    Inspired by Bingee, I vinyl wrapped the DRL area in 3M dark carbon fibre. Also took the opportunity to wrap the spoiler which really transformed it from a worn out piece to eye pleasing in an instant.

    I purchased my 2011 this past February, and I have some pretty grand ideas, I DO NOT have a pretty grand pocket book. So I am doing what I can little by little. I would like to put in after market fog lights, and I already have a horn picked out that I would like to put it to replace the, in my opinion, the terrible OEM one. Today I finished a small project, I like the look of the black wheels but I cannot afford a new set of wheels. I looked for some black after market ones but they dont fit on the specific Prius wheels. So I bought some OEM style aftermarket ones and painted them black, and also bought some black lug nut, I finished putting them on tonight. I also removed my rear badge and had a sheet metal shop cut me a white piece of steel in a shape close to the depression and I stuck that on with 3M tape. I did that so my bike rack bar would lay flat. Since its metal I also found two magnets to put there as well. Thanks for wading through my long post. Enjoy the pictures.

    These are the kind of modifications that it's just best that you leave the car alone instead...

    Thumbs up for the FSM and his Noodly Appendage.
