    Put on my TRD springs today. Couldnt put on my sway bar because I forgot to remove the endlinks from my salvaged car. ;( I gotta buy the endlinks separate for $100 what a rip off!

    While I was waiting at the car shop so this other MATT black prius across the street with a full kit looked pretty nice. Any one know who this is?

    Yeah, Nokya is a good product. I've been using 2500k H11 bulbs in my foglights for years with no problems. I've been thinking of getting some 9005 yellow ones for my DRL/highbeams too. The pic of the PIAAS look good, but no way I'd pay that you for bulk bulbs lol.

    iJDMTOY Standard 1210-SMD LED Interior Lights Combo Package for Toyota Prius

    I got to see them in use after dark tonight for the first time. The amount of light increased dramatically vs the stock bulbs . I'm glad I didn't get one of the brighter options available. Everything has been plug-n-play, no modifications other than changing over the bulbs to LED's. All of the interoir LED's installed, except the door lights.


    You can see much more in my sfprankster's (mis)adventures modding a 2014 Prius thread.

    Thanks......Nope, laid 4 coats of black right on top of it, then 3 coats of clear/glossifier with the pearl in it. The thicker the better for durability and peel ability.

    Through the magic of professional installation, 3k HID fog lights and 5k HID headlights from Extreme HID.

    Looks good but I wouldn't have put hid's in the fogs. There is no cutoff so it causes too much glare to oncoming traffic

    I put the nokya 2500 bulbs in for the look

    I didn't install them for use in urban areas. I need it to function much more than how it looks. If I had installed them for looks, I would have matched the fog lights and the 5k head lights. Where I live, I rarely see more than 2-3 cars over the course of 15-20 miles of driving, most of it on single lane roads, 7'-10' wide. Oncoming traffic isn't really an issue. I much prefer having my gf being able to see at night in the fog and rain.
