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

Swapping TPMS over thanks to Raceline USA

 

Getting ready for the big trip!

 

@m3pare Nice wheels! What're the specs?

 

Yessir! 2nd Oznium order shipped... should be in Saturday. I'll text you this week.

Thanks John! They're VIP Modular VRC110's in a brushed finish. 18x8.5" square et45 front and et35 rear.

 

reupholstered my arm rest cause it was getting grimy as hell!!
cost me about 3 bucks from Joanns fabric shop.




the lighting makes it look lighter than what it is, but its a grey leather like material.
Im whatevers about the color right now, might change it later down the road.

thanks again to @putaariawan for the idea of removing the blue background on the front emblem
I love the way the full black looks over the blue outline!!

 

Looking good buddy! Is that the eBay lip? Did you paint it yourself? I'm thinking of painting it white also too with Pearl. I saw plastidip with pearlizer can get close. Is that what you used?

 

thanks man and yup thats the infamous ebay lip with pearlizer plasti dip

I got it professionally painted once but I accidentally hit a dip and destroyed the paint LOL
So I just stripped it and painted about 2 cans of white plasti dip + 2-3 coats of pearlizer

very surprising how close you can get it to matching.

that lips been through a lot though LOL it fell off on the freeway, twice haha

 

@adawg nice bro!!!

Damn how did it fall off? Do the bolts not offer sufficient holding power? (Holding power...that's what she said...lol!)

 

once again, it was due to my poor judgment and driving haha

during this time I just recently lowered my car so I wasnt use to the ride height.
Theres a few dips on the freeway and I accidentally drove over one of them.
My lip caught the road and folded under the car and ripped it right off the bolts LOL

so embarressing, had to exit and get back on the freeway to pick it up.
the sad thing was I drove passed the lip like 3 times.

But the bolts do secure the lip pretty good but the double sided tape is what really holds the lip in place to your front bumper (if that makes any sense?)

the tape always sagged so I got fed up and just zip tied it.
hope that helps

 

It's all about function Get Mad We Still Drive Slow

 

omg its beautiful

 

Mini road trip to mammoth

 

Wanna sell those headlights?

 

Your car looks cool, is it only lowered and with that eBay lip, no bodykit? If that's true I need to lower my car immediately! Love the clean look of your car!

 

Wow that looks beautiful! Haven't been anywhere that looks that nice before but my work is sending me and my wife to "Crazy Mountain Ranch" in Montana for 4 days in August! Can't wait to see such beautiful sites

 

Seibon diffuser, correct?

 

Took off the vent visors. Look cleaner???

The edges are not perfect. Probably gotta redo it someother time

This was from a few weeks ago. I never had a good before after pic of my tail lights but found one on my tinter's Instagram this morning.
For a film I am happy with how it turned out.
