Hello everyone, I would to share with you an easy way to fix your rear bumper gap. All you need is a hot glue gun a razor bladeand rubbing compound. You can get a (small) hot glue gun from Michaels store for $3.99. Once the glue is heated, fill the glue on the rear bumper where you see the hole after applying the glue then lift up the bumper and hold it about 3-5minutes. Use the razor blade to clean up the spill glue coming out. Put the sharp edge of the razor blade into a small hole on the bumper the slowly cutting the clue. You can also use thumb nail to help scratching off the clue as well. Lastly I use rubbinh compound to clean the sticky glue. I've been driving with this for 6 days now and the gap does not come off again at all. Sorry for my bad english and I apologize if this has been poste. Hope this helps to all prius drivers. Regards, D
Sorry but the hot glue fix doesn't work a long time. I had the same procedure made a year ago on my former PiP and it didn't last more than a week, when temperature dropped drastically. My solution was to replace for the improved inner bracket that holds the rear quarter panel. On my wife's 2011 hatchback that was recently bumped on the rear, I noticed the infamous wider gap to start growing. This design is a piece of garbage.
