    Gorgeous! It looks even better than the OEM two-tone on RAV4 Prime XSE.

    Looks nice!! Gorgeous, in fact. But I hate to think of how hot the cabin will get if you park it in the sun. :eek:

    If you wanna go OEM, the Prius' 17" rims are painted black with silver inserts. You could replace the silver inserts with black ones to get an all-black rim. (Or just order what the "2021 Edition" Prius has)

    This last one with the Wind Chill Pearl is a Prius Limited with the silver inserts swapped out for black ones.

    This is how it originally looks with the silver inserts.

    I was looking at those, they look nice but I don’t know if I want to trade the mpg for it. I’ve been searching around a lot but there aren’t much options at 15 in that look nice. I might settle with 16” instead. The konig oversteer is my top choice right now.

    Looks great! I have always wondered how it would look to wrap from the little dash window to the headlight and do the hood and area above the lights and grill to tie it into the black front.

    The roof wrap is great. +1.

    Rims - replacement may be best.
    There may even be black wheel covers available.
    Some good options are posted above.

    I would not "rattle can" paint your current rims.
    You could professionally two stage (color followed by clear) paint or power coat your current wheels.
    I am not sure if replacement rims (even a used option) or painting/ coating is the most cost effective.

    Good luck with your project.

    I wish I saw the power coat post before I bought the new replacement rims. It looks real nice from what I’ve seen. I went with the 16in Konig Oversteer. I’m pretty excited for them to come in though. It will be the last thing I will do to my car for a while.
