    If 1 is LOATHE and 10 is LOVE, I'd give it a 4.6. The graphics don't really tie into the lines of the car or it's clean/high MPG/future message.

    If you give it a 10, go for it!

    I'm a Nay. Without the bra I might be neutral, but it clearly conflicts.
    Even then, I think the design is too "heavy" for the personality of the car.

    Nay. I'm thinking silver might be a better color stripe, so it ties in with the rims.

    Nay, its just too much. I prefer something less gaudy. If you like it its all that counts.

    What matters is what YOU think - it's your car. ( But Nay )

    I'm neutral to it, but it would be a yay if you would tint your front windows to match your back. Then it might look a little more clean.

    As Madonna says: "Express yourself!" I like it, I think it is different and stands out. Oh and the <sp> is riddance ;)

    From a design standpoint, tribal graphics on a Prius are an oxymoron. A design with a tech edge makes more sense. Just hang your tattooed arm out the window to express yourself. :)

    If it were my car I'd say nay. The graphics are bulky, distracting and conflict with the design of the vehicle as a whole. They pull the eye away from the lines of the car, and create a jumble of shape instead.

    I like it--and now I'm afraid to post a photo after I do my decals :(

    I'm in the "Nay" camp, as well.
    The nice decals you have look good, but if you add a heavy, massive door design, it becomes overpowering.

    How about a few thinner strands that come from the same place, but terminate in curls on the front doors? Can you visualize that? Like... visible air flow... I could draw it ... badly:

    Only, better than that, of course.
    and, professionally done.
    Airbrushed, not a decal....
