    I installed the Plus/TRD rear sway bar. What a difference! Drives like a whole different car. I'm very happy with the results. image.jpg

    Picked my car up from the body shop after 3+ weeks and $15k in damage. Looks like new. had them leave the wheel covers off.

    Wow! Well that's a good news but I hope that the accident was not your fault.

    It started to rain one morning on the way to work and the rain was turning to ice as it hit the ground. I came around a bend and down a hill and lost control and ended up in a cluster of trees.

    XMAN LIVE : That's because it is a picture of Jim Parsons as Sheldon.

    As for the Prius, I had the windows tinted (70% front, 35% rear) and a hidden hitch installed. I also installed my weathertech all-wheater mats (in black)

    I'm just waiting for summer to arrive to install my new wheels, these 16" from DAI with Continental DWS :

    Nice, did you have to cut the brackets in any way? I remember a discussion about having to shave some metal off.

    That's only if you are using the Tanabe STB. Otherwise they're a directed bolt on.

    For the good dampers- would it be possible to snag these off if a car at a junkyard? Whether they be for a hatch or a hood, as long as they're the same size shouldn't they work?

    I'm just thinking this would be a $10 alternative instead of $70...
