I know a lot of people here don't "get" the whole mod a Prius thing, but it has pretty decent aftermarket support in Japan. There are plenty of Prius owners in Japan fixing these up, and other hybrids. (The Honda CR-Z comes to mind)

The Prius doesn't have that same stigma in Japan that it has in the US. In fact it's quite the opposite.

It pretty much falls into the same category as vans, vip and dekotora type builds. This is a big part of Japan's custom scene that largely goes unnoticed here.

Just because you don't like the Prius, doesn't mean you should shit on him for it. I'm glad to see such an original build in a forum filled with cookie cutter paint-by-numbers brz/fr-s.

Keep the up dates comin man!

Same thing with the Yaris (I'm on my second one). People always ask why I mod mine and not just focus on my FR-S.
