    I gotta say, this kit is what is making me want to get a 10 Prius for a daily driver. Its on the expensive side and is made to order in Japan but I have a source to get it to the states.

    Before people comment on the ride height of the car, this car pictured is on air suspension and set at the lowest height for picture purposes only. Obviously you can't drive like that.

    Oh and idk what is up with the Lexus badges. I think this kit looks amazing :eek:

    I think combination of the exhaust pipes, wheels, and fog lights make for a very good finish. I know you mentioned about the height. Gotta say a little low for me. Just the kit itself though is pretty clean. Really like those fogs though.

    400 bhp would also make it's bark as big as it's bite.

    I think I've seen the kit posted above in another thread about a month or two back, and most of us did agree that it looked awesome. Sure wouldn't mind mine looking like that.

    I've had a wallpaper of it on my computer for a few months now.

    The first photo has the Toyota badge. The Lexus badge is obviously because it was Lexus-inspired (rectangular tailpipes, etc.).

    Hmm, very nice kit, but how would this kit affect fuel economy?? I would bet that this kit will hurt fuel economy significantly.

    I like the look of the front, I don't really like the non-functional dual exhausts in the back. It just doesn't seem right on a prius.

    You probably want to go at most 18s on the wheels too, those pictured look bigger.

    Badges, you don't need no stinking badges ;-)

    Around $2900 + shipping.

    If you are seriously interested, PM me and I can put you in contact with the shop that can import Aimgain products to the USA.

    Not sure about fuel economy.
