    Hmm @InspectorGadget, do we need more horsepower before this is available for the Prius?:(:D(n):cry:

    If you want to install a basket handle, yes, you need more horsepower.

    From my experience, if you can't stop thinking about it, more than likely you will be getting it, whether it be now or later. Better now than later. The endless torture is draining. Cha Ching! :D

    Have @sfv41901 put in an order to custom build it. @Dylan Doxey to do retrofit led the entire length of the wing. @RightOnTime to test on the track and market it while the rest of us keeps staring at it and dream of the "what ifs". :)

    @saulbassfan for the grill just photoshop it first then decide. I don't think you have any silver accents on your car may look odd.

    Anyway, my contribution to this thread since we are all over the place. As @torparts would say "stay on topic!".

    Bought the Tom's Bar from hybridpit.com and powdered coated here in San Diego. Big things coming. Ramen noodles on deck. #phuckthebudget

    I'll do some photoshop mockups. That usually gives me a good idea.


    So I finally bought these, via my friend in Japan.

    dont forget to modify the inverter cover or dremel off the top right grounding plate and move it to a different spot. @Burna J would know a good spot. and/or have pics of this.

    @Dylan Doxey this is a Strut Tower Bar. Just like a Cusco or Tanabe STB. TRD is the RSB (Rear Sway Bar)

    @InspectorGadget

    In order of best to ok:

    Toms STB: 1 piece Solid Design for minimal to no flex. Clears the Fuse Box

    Cusco: 3 piece bolt together design. Clears the fuse box

    Tanabe: 3 piece bolt together design. Does not clear the fuse box

    I look at it this way......if I'm going to spend the money to stiffen up the chassis by buying a STB to reduce body flex, I want a bar that won't flex. A welded 1 piece bar can handle more tinsel/compressive strength than that of a bolt together bar.

    I've personally owned a Cusco STB & now Toms STB
