    HEY PRIUS CHAT FOLKS !!!

    For those that asked for pictures on the installation of the AIR RUNNER Suspension, here they are !!!


    :)
    :):):)

    I unfortunately don't know too much about the installation as I had the professionals handle this one, however if you do have specific questions that I may not be able to answer, feel free to contact Shin at Air Runner at (714) 978-2446.


    Here are the pictures ...

    After the installation, I took it home and installed Sound Deadening to the Rear Trunk to control the sound and vibration of the Air Compressor ...

    I seriously love your ride man.. I wish I had the time and money to do this.. but I am just going to have to oggle your car for a while.

    Anything new to it? It's been a few weeks. :)

    HEY PRIUS CHAT FOLKS !!!

    :):):):)

    Been busy with Show Season locally here in So Cal and getting ready for the SEMA Show in Las Vegas in November !!!

    Between that and getting ready to start classes back up at the University, it's been pretty hectic ...

    Have a couple of new mods to the HB II Ride that I want to share !!!

    01. PRIUS PLATINUM BADGE
    02. BEAT SONIC SHARK FIN ANTENNA


    Here we GOOO !!!

    08-01-11

    My PRIUS PLATINUM BADGE arrived in the mail !!!

    The Prius Platinum Badge Commemorates the 1 Million Mark in Prius Sales in the United States.

    It also represents a design that at the time of the 1 Million Mark in Sales:

    I had 12,000 miles driven, 4.24 tons of CO2 saved.* That's equal to the weight of 1.92 SUVs

    Below is my unique badge celebrating one million Prius hybrids across America.

    – The more lines you see, the more mileage your Prius has.
    – The longer and wider the lines, the older your Prius.
    – The greener your badge, the more CO2 your Prius has saved.
    – Each starting point on the badge represents a Prius you've owned.

    Haven't figured yet where I'll place the Commemorative Badge ... Stay Tuned !!!

    And on 08-02-11

    I installed the BEAT SONIC SHARK FIN ANTENNA !!!

    I am very happy with this product. I have experienced NO loss in Satellite, FM, or AM Reception. I like the design as it takes the place of the Standard Mast. It is has a Clean, Sleek, and Aerodynamic profile.

    Stats:

    Antenna Type: Helical Coil
    Connection: Direct connection to antenna base
    Fixation: Double-Sided adhesive tape
    Attachment Screw: M4, M5, M6 sizes provided

    The Shark Fin Antenna comes in the following OEM colors:

    Blizzard Pearl
    Classic Silver Metallic
    Black
    Barcelona Red Metallic
    Blue Ribbon Metallic
    Sandy Beach Metallic
    Winter Gray Metallic
    Magnetic Gray

    Here are pictures !!!

    Again, I'm really pleased with the Beat Sonic Shark Fin Antenna !!!

    You can contact Daichi or Eric at Beat Sonic at : (714) 994-1085

    Tell them I sent ya !!!

    SEE YA SOON FOLKS !!!

    Nice shark antenna! It looks a bit shorter because the one in the PC Shop is not compatible with SR models.

    Thanks Rodney for pointing out the link for the badge. Just ordered mine. You are definitely more in the know when it comes to all the specialty stuff. Hope all is well. Will let you know the next time we head out to Disneyland so hopefully we can meet up and hang out. Dying to see the car in person. Talk to you soon.
