    I need some urethane side skirts for prices like this! Anyone know of some decent urethane side skirts that are not terribly expensive? Years ago apparently the 1st owners jacked the car up on both sides in the wrong spot and actually on the side skirts and mine have a spot on both sides that's not too bad, but I notice it for sure and it drives me crazy. Reason why I never installed my CF pieces to my side skirts.

    Opted for the relay option. Figured I could always add the switch later if I ever want to.

    It's setup in the way that's its on with ACC, on with parking light and off with low beams.

    Love the look, definitely lost some MPG’s though :ROFLMAO:. Slight improvement in braking

    - Alignment. Comped with brake install
    - Detailed vehicle. Prepping for scratch removal, paint and wet-sanding

    Did you really lose MPG? I've got the same rotors on my Prius and didn't. Notice any reduction in MPG, just a nice bump in stopping power.

    U might want to double ur rotors. I believe they are put on the wrong side. The slots should face forward, not backwards.

    Stopped by HybridPit on my way back from Irvine today :cool:

    // Installed //
    - Cusco Front STB
    - Toyota Premium Horn 400/500

    I’m honking at everything right now hahah. Pretty sure the novelty will not fade. The stock horns don’t even come close to the premium. The Cusco STB is awesome too and definitely recommended. The improvement in handling is worth the upgrade.

    Happy with both :D

    Early stages. About 5 hours in. Ran out of fiberglass and used carbon fiber instead. Nowhere near being done, but you can see the overall shape. The end product won't likely be carbon fiber. IMG_20180429_165619.jpeg IMG_20180429_165628.jpeg

    Interesting..I just installed these too! I won't post pics here...as the install was on our Prius v (wagon) but they exist here :

    Hi all, new Prius v owner | Page 3 | PriusChat

    Geez I'm jealous of how nice your suspension components look. Ours are rusty as heck ( midwest winters take their toll I guess ). Anyway, sorry to dirty up this thread with my 'Prius v' related crap. :whistle:
