As we wind down the year, its great to know that Tokyo Auto Salon is right around the corner. Honestly, the show never fails to impress; the aftermarket really comes together to showcase their best. A few months back Tommy Kaira’s rendered Prius had the internet buzzing, and guess what? Its here in the flesh ready for its showing at TAS2010. As car become “greener” we can rest asure that tuning will follow suit. The aero package includes a front spoiler, grille trim, side skirts, roof spoiler and a rear valence with an integrated diffuser. Performance modifications include an upgraded brake package, sports suspension, and performance exhaust. While it wont transform your Prius into a race car, it sure will look good while saving fossil fuels.

This kit/concept has been swirling around the internet for a few months, and has gained a lot of attention. ASI has released the final rendering of the aero kit of the 3rd generation Prius. That’s right, your plain jane Prius can look exactly like this one.
We have a pretty hard and fast rule about posting product that hasn’t been released yet, usually because we don’t want to get anybody’s hopes up. This how ever is pretty different because pre-orders are being taken. If you are interested please click through for contact info.

When it comes to hybrid cars, there are many players in the game but the Prius is leading the pack. It would make sense for tuning companies to focus their efforts more towards hybrids. Kenstyle is no different, recently they announced the shipping of their newest aero package for the lastest version of the Toyota Prius. While aero styling really comes down to aesthetic choice, I believe it well worth it to look into it if you own a new Prius.

Tom’s is really on their game when it comes to the 3rd Generation Prius. First with the Aero kit that we covered earlier this month, and now with this HID kit. Unlike the second generation Prius, the newest model comes with either halogen on LED lighting. The Tom’s kit is an upgrade for those with halogen lamps. The kit includes HID bulbs, ballast, igniters, mountings for the fittings, and connectors for H11 sockets.
