New Mag Gray Touring Prius in Less Than an Hour/ Tint/ Center Caps

JunsGrayPria · 08-10-2007, 06:14 PM

I'm almost an official member... that is... by having my Prius... I've named her "Pria"

Dealer expected delivery Tuesday, Aug. 7th, but the car didn't get to the dealer until today Friday, Aug. 10th... What a terrible thing to wait... I'm trading in my Highlander so it's a welcome change!

Any recommendations for window tinting places in the Southern California area, specifically Pasadena area? I've read the posts and people seem to be recommending a place in Culver City, but it's a little far.

Also, where do you get the center caps? Where can you order them?
Thank you so much for all the useful information. This forum actually convinced me to get the Prius rather than the gas-guzzling Acura RDX.

Okay, gotta head out to pick up Pria... maybe I'll post pictures pretty soon.

I never understood why people tint their windows, why are you so afraid of other people being able to see you?

because in the prius you are visible from everyone, its like a fish bowl with all those windows. it also makes you feel secure and cuts the heat out big time,here in phx my car with illegal tint is awesome

It reduces the need to run the AC in the Summer. Pretty simple.

Perhaps not wanting UV rays to ruin your interior over time? That's one use.

Perhaps not wanting UV rays to damage your skin over time? That's another use.

Perhaps not wanting to cook yourself in your car? Here's another one.

In California it is only illegal to tint the windshield and the front side windows.
