I agree!
We just registered a new domain and will be slapping something up soon. We are really excited about the name, too. This of course was after we managed to:
- Gather enough evidence that the skirts will not cause a vehicle to explode or crash violently.
- Convince our attorney that this will not cause vehicles to explode or crash violently.
- Bought (more) insurance after convincing our agent that the attorney was convinced.
- Convince our wives that the cost of our attorney and insurance agent was justified, and that we will be home for supper at least three nights per week.
And since the wife is agreeable, it might actually happen.

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

Yep, Hybrid Effects. They're $400/pair - unpainted, $500 with paint. They appear to be of great quality and fiberglass, but they are not easily removable - better keep a screwdriver in the glove box.
I have seen other skirts for very few modern vehicles, but all produced from different manufacturers. Chevy HHR, SSR, Dodge Magnum/Charger, PT Cruiser... none of which would I lump into the "eco" community.
