    I picked up my white Prius three w/ black interior this past weekend and have already made some mods (air filter and black applique). That being said, I am having my windows tinted this Friday, March 17 with a 55% tint as I have a black interior - does anyone have a few pictures to share of 50% - 55% tint? If so, please post.

    THANK YOU!

    What did you do with your AIR FILTER?

    Just dropped in a k&n air filter. No biggie and too early to tell if there is any difference.

    Yeah if you are buying a K&N air filter for the Prius, you bought the wrong car. I wouldn't sacrifice filtration performance for so little a performance gain by using a performance air filter.

    I did the Florida legal limit tint and it is perfect. I have to be able to see out of my windows at night.

    I didn't buy the filter for any performance of horse power. Just bought it as I plan on keeping this car for a long time. My other car is a Lexus ls430 with 175,000 miles and purchased a k&n filter for that car when I first owned it 8 years ago and 80,000 miles earlier. The filter pays for itself. Hope this helps.

    I am sorry you have been deceived into thinking Toyota chose the wrong filter for their own car. I hope all goes well despite this.
