What did you do to ur Gen III Prius today????

The ISM roof spoiler is listed everywhere for a 10-11. Does anybody know if the 12 is different? I'd like to order one but I'd like to confirm there wasn't anything different on the facelift cars???

 

It’s not a difficult mod at all. Drain oil first, of course. Then you pop off a few bolts using a long extension, reaching past the wheel. The old comes right off, the new pops right on, torque the bolts, spin on a new filter, maybe pop on a Fumoto valve while you’re at it... Presto! Oil change nirvana.

 

It reads like a good mod for the convenience alone.

 

Holy $#!*&!. Sometimes I think these places do it on purpose!

 

I don’t know... it happened to me, and I do all my own oil changes and I’m very careful. I could not get that filter off, no way, no how.

 

So my wife, my son and I took my Prius to Costco and have a slow leak in one of my tires fixed (we usually take our new CR-V everywhere now) and then filled the cargo area with stuff from Costco. After driving the car for 5 years and I'm still amazed at how much crap this car can swallow!

 

Hello It’s been awhile
Installed -3 camber shims

 

Had a Prius Meet and Cruise.

 

I was wondering how you were running those specs without any camber how is the fit of your wheels with those

 

Yeah it’s a lot better now. I even went lower. Just a little bit

 

Got my old beat up fairing wrapped up proper...Haha. I should have some "actual" parts rolling in soon so...updates coming.

 

S.O.B. Thanks for letting me know. I’m going to SF this Sunday and coming back on Monday. Wondering if you can leave it somewhere in the bushes on one of those days, and I’ll come and get it in case your running errands. Say Sunday around 10-11am.

 

It's on there so tight, tried again and it's absolutely not coming off without an impact wrench. I really think they impacted it on with some thread locker, there's no way anyone in their right mind would tighten it up this much.

On that note, I ended up buying the spin on oil filter conversion kit from HybridPit. Should fix the issue, and make oil changes a bit easier in the future. I also picked up some TOMs member braces for the front! Autocross season starts so so I have to be ready.

Also actively searching for a G's front and rear bumper, and a carbon fiber hood if anyone has a lead!

 

We’ll work something out.

Text me on Sunday and we’ll see what we can do.

 

Installed fog lights on my Prius over the weekend. Replaced the halogen bulbs with some BeamTech LED bulbs I swapped out recently. Pretty happy with it!
Thinking of swapping the housing out for a projector type and getting yellow LED bulbs instead.
Took the commonly quoted 5 hours to finish. 80% of which was spent getting the cover off the bumper!

 

Got my new wheels mounted up .RPF1s 18x7.5 et48, with 215/40s. Waiting for my universal are set up to deal with the wheel gap issue .

 

Don't forget the window tint! Rid the fish bowl look

 

Yesterday I installed my new taillights. The first Prius in Germany with these taillights.
