What did you do to your Kia Stinger today?

Yeah, they probably have a separate site for US / Canada and each recognizes only VINs for that country.

My 2019 GT1 was clear - as of today. My guess is they haven't updated anything yet. Something like ~13K 2019 Stingers were sold in the US - 9400 is probably ALL the 3.3s.
This is from the NHTSA website 2019 KIA STINGER 4 DR FWD

Tried this one and got this.

An error occurred with your request. Kia Motors Corporation does not recognize your VIN. Please contact Kia Motors Corporation or go to their website http://www.kia.com/us/ for recall information about your vehicle.

Must be a country issue. Have any of you other CDN’s given it a try?
I did... came up with no recalls

Put on the mud flaps, a bit of fight to get those original plugs out, without a nice removal tool. I used a pair of scissors braced against one of my scraping tools. The rear ones were a lot easier to remove. Constant self reminder, stay away from the paint!

Buy a set of trim removal tools on Amazon, they are cheap and well worth it.

Love amazon, will do. I have a TON of tools, my late hubby was a high tolerance precision machinist, even worked on space shuttle parts. When he passed I had a 3000 sq foot shop full of machines and tools. Had to have a auction to sale some of the stuff before I moved back east.

But of course what you need is never around.
 
After watching a video on removing the center console, I ordered the MICTUNING 13 Pcs Auto Trim Removal Tool Set from Amazon. I had a cheap set of trim tools -- they all broke. This set is much higher quality and includes push fastener removal tools. Turned out to be a great recommendation.

I have that same one. Really great quality.
 
Hit 6000mi so first oil change. Put in the Fumoto drain valve. Note: do not mistake your engine oil from discount chardonnay. Both are fatal in doses over 500mL.

That color came out strong! What paint did you use?
Seeing how easy people say this is, I could dig that red and making the stripes a grey to match the Ceramic Silver.
It’s Dupli-Color Metalcast, you need to use the appropriate primer on non-metallic surfaces such as the engine cover. The longest part of the job was masking the cover.
