    The best looking prius I've seen, period. I'd love to see some more pics of the process, list of all you've done etc... Amazing transformation. I guess a prius can be cool.

    Wow thats really well done. The carbon hood does away with the ding issue too. Love the Blue LED's across the headlights. Attention to detail is superior. How hard do those 40 series tires hit though. But there beauts!! Same color as mine too.I thought I was stylin' removing the wheel rims!!

    I'd never want to accuse anyone of that ... but there's no way in heck that those meats would fit into stock fender wells ... imo ... without serious suspension mods. Then again, the OP mearly said, "finished" ... so maybe he DID mean photoshop.

    btw, the GEN III DOES get side mirror marker lights ... only not to the U.S.
    but look out all you aftermarket buyers!

    That's why he said "CHOPPED". :D

    It is a good photoshop job. Nice work. I don't care for the carbon fiber hood but you put it together well.

    Nice catch.....even the "original" photo was lacking the door handles....also the hood emblem.

    Photoshop all the way...Or as most car forums call it "photochopped" that's why I said "Chopped" My bad for not making that clearer. The Original did have the Handles and Emblem I just forgot to remove that layer before I posted it, Good Catch. LOL, Must have been a decent chop considering how many thought it might be real. NE Ways I was just having a little fun with PS and thought I would share.

    If anyone wants to see what something might look like on their ride post it up and I'll see what I can do.

    I asked this in another thread so maybe you can help... Many of us do not care for the look of the new 15" wheel covers on the 2010. It has a 5 spoke design, as compared to the 6 spoke of the 2004-2009. Maybe if the cover (and of course rim underneath) stayed 6 spoke on the 2010 the spokes would have been thinner and not had that thick 'dorky' look which is what many do not like.

    So can you modify this image to show how it would look with 6 spokes instead of 5? I am sure it'd make the spokes thinner... Just wondering how it'd look. Thanks and if it can't be done I completely understand! :)

    Nice chopped!
    The tire-width seems a bit overdone though, too meaty on a Prius-class which defy logic. :D

    Personally I like the 5 Spoke a little more...Kinda think its a bit more sporty sure would be better in 18" but alloy but just my 2 cents.

    Hope this is what you where looking for.....whew that was harder than I thought it would be LOL

    Damn, I gotta learn photoshop! You know, there's a reason I have absolutely no artistic expression... I thought it would look better but I do have to agree with you, it just looks off... I think we'll be seeing a lot of people either changing the 15" for aftermarket or just taking off the covers.

    Thanks so much for doing that for us, I'm going to link in that other thread to the pic you did so others can see it too. Thanks again :)

    Oh, btw, like that little crossdrill you put into them rotors and the Brembo calipers! Lol

    Photoshop can be fun! Hope the others enjoy.

    I had to upgrade the brakes, just a little something extra while I was at it :D.
