    When can we expect to see pricing and/or ordering? The wheels look amazing and at such a light weight I may even upgrade to the 16's. About time someone makes parts for the Prius that dont kill the purpose of the car....thank you!

    Cool graphic by the way, where can I get one in black? haha

    We have done the research and found that the Prius market has been over-looked and has much potential for growth. We do hope that through our products we will ultimately spark interest of current Prius owners as well as reach out to a demographic of non Prius owners.

    We are striving to "Make Green Cool" one step at a time.:D

    Awesome! Great job, I like it.

    For those thinking of buying and modding a Prius will have much easier hobby than a few years ago. When I got my Prius, there were zero after-market parts available. We only had the decal sold here in Prius Chat.

    Have a question for VipAutoSalon. The MPG of 15" OEM is the same as the 17x7.5 R66. Which tire did you use? I see the 18" tires are Hankook Ventus.

    I was considering upgrading my seats to leather. I do not see a mention of what you used. Was it a cover or a complete replacement?

    Which "wax" did you use? It sure looks shinny.

    for the 17x7.5 we use either a 205/45-17 or 215/45-17 depending on the tires side wall.
    As for the interior believe it or not its a slip on cover. i can not stress enough how good the quality and fit is, it's amazing. When i closed the deal with Superior and they sent over the requested kit for SEMA i was sceptical to as how the fitment would be as well as the ease of installation. The total installation time was about 3 hours and that was including the time it took to remove all the seats from the car. :rockon:

    I have helped build a couple Sema cars when I worked at the tuning firm. I would love to see the Prius aftermarket market spread and available to the US markets, because everything I am finding requires jumping through hoops. Plus shipping from Japan, not an easy thing to do.
