    finally got some time to rubber coat my stock wheels, just loved the "Darth Vader look", just like his bigger brother Rx350.

    Vince that looks great! Your Prius is the same color I will be getting when it arrives at the dealer in about a week! What center caps did you end up finding that would work? I am probably going to go that route with the rims if my other idea doesn't work out.

    Unfortunately no center caps available yet that will fit 2016 Prius, the wheel center groove is bit a far down, I have used ebay 54mm center caps and trim down the tabs until it fit snugly, 3m double side tape was used.

    I'm sure it is. Pull off what you can, brush paint the rest. Crazy that it's like this though.

    That is the plan for mine when I get it. Bought grey brushed aluminum vinyl. I think it will look good with the black interior. Would be really hard to vinyl wrap the center console where the cup holders are. If I like the look I might buy the appliqué and then vinyl wrap that.

    i was just curious about visual comparison between stock 15" hubcaps, $50 plastidip and $899 toyota 10" spoke wheels, you'll be the judge.

    plastidip + center caps $50.00
