I'll take a pair for the 2000 Insight! Oh, wait...

We've had a few people in the forum here expressing interest in doing this, but it always seems to peter out. It would be great to see this get off the ground.

At one time, you could get factory-looking aftermarket skirts for the 2nd gen. Prius. You might want to dig around and see if you can find out if they're still available or if not, why not.

EDIT: yeah - just Google "Prius wheel skirts".
