    Here is a modification I've been thinking about. The Prius G in Japan look way cool, but since there are no front bumpers for the 2G Prius from a Prius G (to my knowledge), I took to photoshop and visualized what a similar style would look like if I painted the front of my Prius.

    Thoughts? I know I would need a couple base layers, 2-3 black, and then a clear coat on top to protect it from car washes.

    OK, but it would look better, IMO, on a gen 3.

    Why not just do a plastidip trial run, if you like it enough then splurge and actually have the car painted.. At least this way you could remove it if you didn't LOVE it..

    Great idea! I'm not sure why I didn't consider that first! :)
