After seeing all of the posts about dings and scratches on paint, and living about two miles up a dirt road, I'd like to get a mask for my new Prius.

I called two dealers in the area and they both said that Toyota hasn't made one yet for the 2007. That just seems really odd to me, especially if people are complaining about inferior paint jobs.

When I was pricing out option packages on the Toyota web site, it lists a front-end mask as an accessory for the 2007. Thus I called the dealers, but to no avail.

I checked on several accessory shops, including Coastal Tech, and no one lists a liner for the 2007.

I've not gotten any results on a search here in PC for "2007" and any combination of "Bra" or "Mask" or "Liner". Also a Googgle search didn't yield any results either.

Does anybody know where I can find one before my paint job looks like good old Luna?

Can I use an bra for an older model? If so, which one?

Thanks for any help.

Wow, solved in 7 minutes flat. Thanks so much.

Any idea why it didn't show up in the search? I searched for "2007 mask" in the entire site, including posts, and got no results. Does the search engine time out?

The search engine is screwy, if you don't enter your search info exactly right you'll come up empty.
It's better to do a customized search with google specifying to search only this site.

Cool

Hi, Try www.deltonatoyota.com. They have a bra that will do the job. Toyota part # PT218-47050. $115+ship. Covers everything perfectly but the bottom peice of the bumper exposing a small portion. Delaers will tell you that it will not fit. I have it and am quite satisfied. Let it soak in the sun before attempting to place it on the vehicle. It's a tight fit.

I second the Ebay route. I think I paid around $48.00 with shipping. It is a LeBra and is good quality. I have one for my wife's Matrix for about 3 years now.
