What did you do to your Kia Stinger today?

Wash your mouth out! Lol
Never compare Australians to kiwis.
Its a cricket and rugby issue.
Still Greek to me!
 
Agree, the Chrysler 300 SRT n & Ford stoped manufacturing here I think everyone thought finally we’ll see some premium US models but it hasn’t happened. I thought about holding off and replacing my Commodore with a Camero, but after seeing the price and watching Holden circle the drain I went for the Stinger. Don’t regret it for one second but if Chevy was more competitively priced I’m not sure what I would’ve done.


That’s exactly where I was before buying my Stinger. And I mean exactly. Came from an SSV, didn’t really want to leave my V8 but had no affordable 4 door options. Enter the Stinger.

This is like a UN meeting!

Greeks used to be called wogs before it became politically incorrect to do so.

Australians are still called Aussies.

New Zealanders are called Kiwis.
That's because both nicknames are cute. Not offensive.

Today: Put on a bunch of money worth of "cheap" 18" alloys and Nokian Hakka R3 in 225/45/18 for winter.

Prior to today: Side vent mesh, Tuxmats front and rear, Kia OEM stone guards (mud flaps?).

Still to do: Needs a good detail and paint sealant before winter really hits. I have some lovely dealer installed swirls and caked on rail dust spots to clean up...maybe this weekend.
 
I flirted with a road grader. The driver decided to park right behind me.

I found two more little pieces of clear plastic one day shy of my car's six month birthday in my possession. Funny! These only came to my attention because by now they were starting to look dogeared. And, I was sitting back there as my wife drove "my" car. I happened to grab the convenience handle above the window and either saw or felt something that drew my attention. Of course I checked the three other handles and none of them have plastic on them.

I parked perfectly today. And I do mean perfectly. Look at that perfectly parallel spacing of my rims to the curb.

My wife practiced that soon after these pics. And she used the red lines to align with the top of the curb as she angled in beside a truck in the next stall. Did a really good job. We looked at the rear wheel and it was less than four inches away from the curb. WTH!? I had told her that putting the red line on the curb would give her plenty of inches to spare. But that was cutting it way too close. I then deduced that the cause of the close call was her having the steering wheel turned to back in on a curve: it pulled the red line away from the curb, so that by putting the red line ON the curb in the backup camera view, the wheel was a lot closer than it is when you are backing in straight.
 
Those look great! Where did you get them and what was needed for installation? Thanks!

Original thread. Shout out to Rango and another member I cant think of, thx for giving me the idea. The tips can be purchased on ebay, Aliex, wish, etc make sure you get the 2 inch inlet and 3.5 out. You can probably do 3inch out if you dont want to trim but it might look small. I trim the opening using a razor blade. Exhaust has to come to to take out and install new tips.
