What did you do to your Kia Stinger today?

[Spriggan]

Oil change and tire rotation. Did get to see what the Mishi OCC caught after 3K miles.

@Mateus A couple of us are patiently awaiting our orders. When did your V2 kit arrive?

@usafonz Is it a sign yours will soon arrive?

@Hawk373 I was told a shipment arrived the 2nd week of November. At the time they were still waiting on shipping materials. Since I lived about an hour away from their warehouse they gave me the option to pick up the kit vs. waiting.

A little late but posting anyway...this week I ordered my LAP3 Uncle Chip and should be arriving on Tuesday or Wednesday. Received by Eibach Anti-roll kit in the mail but the package was damaged and parts laying all around inside; crossing my fingers I have everything I need. Now debating if I should order the MBPR exhaust as well before end of day Monday.

You will really like the MBRP if you go that route.

Installed Maxton V1 front splitter today.

Anybody had issues with the 2 factory retainer push pins towards the front that holds the underbody shield? I cannot for the life of me get those back in even when the holes line up. Mine had too much gap between the splitter and bumper to get the push pin all the way in.

Did you use 3m adhesive promoter along with 3m tape? The adhesive promoter is key, that stuff will ensure the spoiler never comes off and it's cheap and easy to apply.

Got a picture of the 2 locations in question? I can check my car and let you know, I installed the v1 on my car too and dont remember this issue.

This is one of them. They are the 2 front nubs out of the 4 on the splitter.

Bought the BMS intake on ebay...got a deal I couldn't resist.

It's because you shouldn't be using ththe factory push pins you should be using the hardware that the lip came with like shown below.

On the far left of that photo you'll also see hardware (self tapping screws) that I bought and used in addition to the hardware maxton sent me. My lip is rock solid.

Hmm.... interesting. Did you have the nut on the other side of that too, or was it just screwed in? I used 13 out of 14 screws that came with the lip so I may need to get more of it.

Yup reached up through that tiny hole with a small wrench and the nut and used an allen key below to tighten it, I'll be honest it was a little difficult to do but it secured the lip really well.

Ok thanks! I take that shield off when I do oil changes so I might go a different route and order some longer push pins instead, but I'll keep that in mind.

Not done yet, but finally on the list!
