no problem, good titles are not my strong suit.

the sides match the sides on the Prius pretty well, not sure rounding will gain much. But He said that this very much a work in progress.

He did design the tail not to cover up the third light. I mentioned that this was a big problem area, and he came up with an idea on the spot, match the height and add a clear section so the light is still visible. I hope he does it and joins up, his ideas on mounting the tail are fantastic. I bet with some pics of how he did it several others would be able to make removable tails for trips and take them on and off in 4-5 min.

He can detail costs better then I but lets just say what he has so far is several factors cheaper compared to the $300 or so I spent on mine.

His one week best estimate of results are very impressive too (I will let him share the scoop on that)

side question, how much benefit will a full belly pan do for me? I know the back 4 feet of my cars underside is a disaster, and to fix it will require a full pan about an inch lower then the underside is right now.
