nice job!

What size wheels/tires are those?
How much did the TRD Lowering Springs lower the car?
Did they affect the ride quality much?

Show us the dash and other details.

Nice start! Can't wait to see more!

I'd love to hear more about how you blacked out the headlights. ...and more pics too!

How do the TRD springs and rear-sway-bar affect handling?

I bet the car feels like its on rails now!

Thanks for all the replies!

Headlights:
It took me around 8 hours to black out the headlights because 1. I didn't know how to remove anything except for one hidden bolt on the headlight assembly to remove it off the car, and 2. I had to wait for the paint to dry. I bought a heat gun from home deopt because I don't agree with baking the headlight assy. If you use the low setting on the heat gun and wave across the glue on the backside, a few minutes should be enough to pull apart the glue after you have taken out the screws for the lens/housing. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE EVERYTHING IN A DUST FREE ENVIRONMENT! There is one screw that has a special fitting, and I didn't have the tool for it. All I did was cut the black tab that the screw goes into. BE VERY CAREFUL ON PULLING THE TABS AROUND THE LENS WHEN REMOVING! After you have applied the heat gun, the tabe become very fragile and I broke a few. There are a few screws to take the chrome piece off of the backside of the assy. After I had the chrome piece off, I used very fine sand paper and water to prep the surface and remove the top layer of chrome. I used a black gloss spray paint and evenly coated the whole piece a few times, an hour between coats. After the last coat started to dry (I was slightly in a rush which is stupid) I put the assy. back together. After screwing the housing screws back in, I used the heat gun for a few minutes and then I put everything back in place. It was a long process, and it wasn't easy, but I love the way they look now.

TRD lowering springs and sway:
The springs lowered the car about 2 inches. The car's lower stance helps with the handling and body roll. I guess in Japan they have a TRD Prius C with sportivo springs. They look way different than these on the rear but I still really like the feel of them. Not too bad on uneven roads, but with 4 people, it is ridiculous how much it bounces on the freeway. The rear sway bar from cusco and the front strut tower bar from cusco really work well together. I installed the strut bar first, and then a week later, I put on the rear sway bar. I IMMEDIATELY noticed a difference in the rear! It feels like the rear of the car is almost locked to the gound. The rear sway bar really compliments the front strut bar. I am still installing the cusco front sway bar and lower arm brace at the beginning of next month once it comes in. I definitely recommend the rear sway bar! It is easy to install and it takes a small amount of time (if you have a jack and stands).

Are those 15" or 16" Wheels on it?

How's the mpg on the car now?

+1 curious to see the dash kit
Looks great. keep up the good work. Any plans on new rims?

Your ride is great! should post a pic in the mod pic thread
Let's see some modified Prius C/AQUA Pics... (picture heavy) | PriusChat

Nice! like everyone else I would like to see more pics, especially of the changes you made to the exterior.

was the fog lights hard to install?

Looks great I was wondering where you got the black emblems?

nicely done ! keep up the mods !

Nice work!

I'm considering putting in HID fogs but suspect they may dazzle oncoming traffic. Have you had anyone flash you their brights after installation? I don't believe the headlights would cause any issues, since they are projectors. I haven't had anyone flash me about mine.

Thanks!

I haven't had any issue with my headlights. They are super bright compared to the factory, but they are cut off because of the projector lens. It's very nice.

Do you plan on racing your Prius?
