    I recently purchased pre-cut Front bumper protection kit for 2010+ Prius 3rd gen for my 2012 Prius five trim but found out that front bumper is different due to Daylight driving lights and the pre-cut kit did not fit on my car.

    Question: Is the front bumper for 2012 Prius five same as 2012 Prius V ?
    Because the vendor carried front bumper protection kit for 2012 Prius V and if its the same, I would purchase that instead.

    Based on the pictures it looks alike.

    If anyone can confirm this it would be great.
    thanks

    No, the Prius v front end is shaped much differently. It is really pointy!
