    I did it! Attached are photos of before and after and what I used. I like the accent it provides now. I achieved the look I wanted with the stock rims. Also finally got a prius chat decal.

    So how long did you wait to drive after installing the trim? Do you think the trim ties in well with the chrome emblems and lights? I keep debating what to do. Should I get this chrome trim to match other chrome on car or should I paint the front/back emblems black to match my black center wheel caps? If I go all black then I guess I would have to get tinted tail lights but then the headlights are still chrome so....

    The trim can come off (3m backing) if you change you mind. For me, I have had the car since August of 2015 just did it. This is because I didn't know of anyway of accessorizing the rim until I found the post from another member with his red trim. If you go all black, having a red trim would work in my opinion. I am pleased with the subtle change the chrome trim adds.
