How many of you have put door sid moldings on your Prius? Has it affected the mileage? Where did you get them and did they match the car color correctly?

Yes, I was hesitant to purchase as well due to potential MPG decrease.

Also got mine from Metro. They are perfect color, and took my body shop around 30 minutes to install. Complements from everyone, it does make the car look more substantial...and now I am less afraid of parking lots!

MPG decrease? Don't see how, they are contoured and barely stick out from the door (maybe 1/2 inch).

Would recommend to anyone!

Double-sided foam tape like the rest of the emblems on the car.
