    I guess I've been a little abusive with my front tires. :rolleyes: Luckily I noticed it while I was working and was able to have them replaced before something real ugly happened. :(:eek:

    Continental DWS with only 22,000 on them...

    Glad you posted those pics:eek: Looks like we both stumbled upon the same issues with Continental DWS! Thought this was caused by my high spirited driving.............

    Wow not good! Continental Tires should be made aware of this premature failure!

    So I won't blame the tires.... They just can't handle the performance of a Prius. :whistle::cool:(y)

    Finally got around to making a set of brackets to get rid of my rear bumper gap... Used .025 thick 304 SS.
    Works perfect. :)

    I'm interested in getting a pair. How much for parts and shipping @Burna J.

    Only problem is, I'm still not sure how these brackets are installed to reduce the gap.

    Is it simple?

    @saulbassfan just installed one on his car and the partial install diagram I've seen him posted might be helpful if he can post the full install diagram.

    Please.

    @Burna J just had a gut feeling that everyone else is going to want one or in our case need one.

    Roger and Chris; that looks like low pressure?- or a bubble in the sidewall..My Toyo T1R's were notorious for doing that on the GS when I had it.

    So at this last mod party, LED master @Dylan Doxey worked his magic..... No more green LEDs and we swapped out the light gray face to the 2010 black.
    Thanks Bro. (y)

    I agree, I think is too bright. Let me find my sun glasses to look at the picture closely. If the head unit is blue. It would look great!
