    Removed the BP mirror covers, P'dipped them and reinstalled them. Thought the BP covers broke up the all-black look of the windows. And if I change my mind, peel it off.

    Nice roof spoiler. Where did you get that? Is it different than the one you had on at TORC?

    Its the same, just finally installed it..I just had it for TORC only then it left my possession.They were making a tooling mold off of it (Aerojacket)... (The ones that are currently sold for the ZVW30 do not work with the rear wiper). This was made to work with the rear wiper since I need to usually use it to remove the dew off the glass at 5AM before I head out to work. :)

    Has Aerojacket produced one yet? I like how this one sits above the nozzle.

    Replaced Yaris yellow fogs with Prius white (clear) fog lights, and replaced cheap Yaris fog switch with correct Prius fog light Switch. Changed factory wheels to Drag DR19 15"x7" wheels: Link

    Installed plain black mud guards in the front. They look great! I like the flat look rather than the molded look. Used the existing holes and the bottom body screw. Had to buy a longer plastic rivet to fit the top hole. Love em, cheap too!

    Installed Weather Tech driver and front passenger wind deflectors. I am having trouble getting the windows to roll up all the way as they detect the deflectors in the channels and roll right back down. May remove them and after a few days in place. Really want to install fog lights but am a newbie at this.

    Be sure to correct your paint and remove all oils/waxes before hand..and do an IPA wipedown prior to application.

    yeah for sure going to spend some time preparing. ill be using this polish though so i wont need to use IPA or any alcohol. Detailer's Coating Prep Polish, clear coat polish, best car polish

    my 3 is only a few months old with only 4K on it. ive kept the paint in great shape with mothers products since the start so im starting with a pretty damn clean canvas. im going to wash it with dawn and strip it down. then hit it with a claybar. then polish it with the Detailers Prep Polish and follow that with the OC2.0.

    my only concern right now is how cold it may be the day i have to get this done. im hoping it arrives on monday and i can do it tuesday. if so the outside temp should be a non issue. i wonder how exactly the colder temps affect the curing time...? will it just take longer to cure or will it not cure properly? or am i thinking too much into this?

    anyway, cant wait to get it on. car MFGs should spray this stuff on at the factory. low maintenance with extreme high performance. cant lose.

    What's up guys! Love this forum! My 3 weeks old 2013 Prius finally have time yesterday and today to do some stuff to it:

    1/ HID
    2/ Titanium Tint 30% fronts / 15% backs
    3/ AVS Visors
    4/ TRD Springs
    5/ Hub Cap removed :)

    The drop made the car looks sooooo much better imo =]

    Disabled the back up beeper with an ELM327 OBD2 to USB adaptor I borrowed from a friend thanks to instructions I found here at PC. Also figured out how to get all doors to unlock from the drivers door SKS.

    Besides the passenger seat belt beep (which I think is fine as it is), are there any other settings I can tweak before I return the ELM327? Links to threads with the terminal commands appreciated....
