    Very nice. I'm going to get the bumper guard and mud flaps as well. It's on my list of things to do.... who knows how long that will take. I love the shark fin, but have no desire to mess around with it or deal with hypothetical loss of signal in some areas. I thought about the side moldings, but decided it wasn't worth it for me. Your mods look great though!

    I really woudn't call the bump guard, mud flaps or side moldings a mod as any dealership can get and install them. But the shark fin antenna is a mod.

    Not to be a ***** but those arent mod's, just accessories. :) Nice looking none the less.

    A mod is where you modify something, like making the prius a convertible.... :D

    Roof racks on a Prius is sacrilege. It even says in the handbook "not recommended".
    Especially if they are permanent, thats a full time MPG hit.

    You would have to come to the PC church and confess such a sin against the greeny god.

    Forgive me for I have been known to carry unnecessary load in my Prius green god.

    Not, there is NOT. The picture is for real. An LA shop modified the Prius.
    Completely UNSAFE. No side curtains and lack of a roll cage.
    I rather have a Sunroof instead.
