    Photos of week when I picked it up from the dealer versus this week. New 18” wheels, tires and tint all around. Only thing left to do is plastic dip the emblems.

    Welcome to Prius Chat(y).

    I went emblemless on the side panels and it's a much better look;):

    Another option to dipping:).

    Good luck with your new Prime(y).

    After more thought I think I want to remove the emblems in the rear other than the T, but don’t the side fender emblems have holes? This is a 2020, so wasn’t sure on this one. I would potentially just remove every emblem.

    Thank you! I always wanted a white car with black rims. Figured now was the time. These cars are special so why not treat it right.

    So I plasti-dipped all emblems. back and sides. Looking nice and clean now.

    Is there any way to do the front Toyota logo? I understand the censors are part of it.

    Are they making the Prime in white again, or you still can only get it with glitter mixed in?

    EDIT - THEY EXIST!!!! I double-checked the VIN. It's real, not a mistake.

    If you have the blue logo, it doubles as a radar window. You might put a sheet of saran wrap over the sensor, put plast-dip on the saran wrap, see if the car can still see through it. If everything still works then you can dip the emblem.

    Beautiful - did you paint the factory rims or did you get new ones? Also if they’re factory, where did you pick up the cool center caps?
