    I am having a hell of a time finding wheels that are 15", 5x100, & lighter than the stock wheels. Everything i'm interested in is back ordered!! :mad: :mad: :mad:

    Three words: Volk Eco Drive.

    Bronze for you. I'd say powercoat black, but I don't think you'd want to replace the really nice finish.

    Yep, i've definitely been scoping out black wheels. I was looking at slipstreams, but again, no stock in the US at this point. Not bad for $400 a set and they are about 12 lb's.

    Hey, how did you tint those fog lights? Do you end up with the really bright yellow? (Not the orangish yellow most fog lights have) - I'm talking about the Lexus IS 300 type stock foglights - I love those...

    EDIT: This is the intensity/color I want, it's almost a green-yellow color, http://img181.imageshack.us/img181/6650/p1010182eu0.jpg

    What is necessary to achieve this look? Is it just the bulb? The tint? Both?

    versus a typical orange-yellow shown here: http://img370.imageshack.us/img370/843/img0776sm7.jpg

    Thanks.

    Thanks! I'm assuming you dont have aftermarket bulbs such as Nokya Hyper Yellow? What color do your fogs show at night, relative to those pics I posted?

    I just purchased some Nokya's but I haven't put them up yet. Contrasted with my hid's + blue film, the fogs look pretty yellow at night so far, more yellow than stock fog lights.

    Thank you, please do! I'm very close to buying those yellow films but want to know the color difference it gives. The brighter the yellow, the more effective fog lamps are, contrary to those who think white xenon fogs are great. Not only that, but true yellow fogs look cool, like they're modded - so your yellow tints aren't only cool looking during the day. Hopefully they serve their true purpose which is at night. Let me know, thanks again supreme.

    Supreme! Thank you so much. I just want everyone to know that Supreme is the man.

    All those lights look great - its exactly the color I was looking for. I just moved up the Nokya yellow bulbs/yellow tint to the top of my mod list.

    Unfortunately, however, I do not have an excuse to do this mod at the time. I need one of my fog lights to burn out. I will leave them on all the time now so they will die faster.

    Thanks again.

    PS where did buy the Nokyas from?

    Hey Supreme,

    How many inches did you lower with the eibach? Can I get a part number? Finally did you only upgrade springs or have to buy new shocks too? Thanks.

    Will this work for these work for the Touring though? Because I called the auto tuner, he looked up his vendors carrying parts for the Touring and set they had zilch for Touring. He said if it was ok to use for the Touring, the kit(s) would show up in his system under Touring...I'm not sure if this is true, if they are in fact, not interchangeable.

    The springs definitely work for the touring prius also.

    Check ebay, might be able to get a set on the cheap.
