    There are 2 simple rule to this thread.
    #1. No factory / stock / OEM Prius C pictures. It can be web found images, or pictures of your own Prius C/Aqua, can be the whole car or any part of the car, but it must be modified in some way ... there are plenty of factory/stock pictures everywhere else on the web
    #2. feel free to quote and comment. all open for discussion.

    Let me start by listing a few...

    All exterior modifications have cost only time, a little vinyl and paint. Oh, yeah, a shark fin antenna. IMG_3472 (900x586).jpg

    I like the Kanto & Vertex setups. The Boom looks like it would be rather inexpensive and still improve the aero a bit. I'd also like the TRD rear hatch spoiler.

    Otherwise, here's mine. Just wheels, 1.5" lowering, and window tint are what's visible.

    Nice mods guys. really clean. Ufourya, did you paint the side of your taillight (vortex generators) or are they black vinyl? i'm thinking of doing something like that instead of buying a overlay cover like the TRD, but wasn't sure how to go about measuring since i'm reluctant to cut the vinyle right on top of the tailight.

    here's some pics of a jdm Aqua i found. looks like the owner painted the chrome to black on the inside of the taillight. another nice and clean option

    Wow some crazy styles. I want to get the TRD rear and ver.2 lip, center cover, and sides. I guess TRD Exhaust since I don't know much about all these others.

    The Intakes not sure what they do? I see both pull air from the factory intake air horn in the engine bay which is good for fuel efficient but don't see other advantage?

    While all these pics make for a nice read, with all the tire & wheel combos, first thought was nice, yes/no, second thought was, what's the MPG hit. Is it in the plus, or minus category It would be nice if manufacturers would take the time to test their wheel tire combo and rate the MPG hit, good or bad!

    Just paint that adheres to plastic I got at Lowe's or Home Depot - can't remember which. A few coats and some polishing. This is a stopgap whle I burn some rubber the OEM tires and decide which wheels and tires will suit my needs via looks and mpgs. While I very much like the looks of larger wheels, I bought this car for the MPGs so I'm thinking closest to OEM size in diameter and width.

    Looks cool. How did you tint your tail-lights? they look very professionally done from the photos. That's something I definitely want done to my C as well. thanks!

    Love the new look! I've been thinking about tinting my tail lights but not sure how that will work with the pair of ridges on the side of the light. Did you buy a kit and was it something an amateur should attempt?
