What did you do to your Kia Stinger today?

[RedCal]

Looks great!

Nice shoes!

I gave my car a little exercise... Sonoma Raceway, HPDE1. What a rush!

Nice. Where did you get them from?

Element Wheels. I worked with a dude named Branden Bartell. He was really nice and set up everything so it would fit my Stinger perfectly. No center hub ring needed, mounted & balanced, TPMS installed and pre-programed. All I did was swap out the stock wheels/tires for the new set then went for a drive. Checked the tire pressure gauge after a mile or so of driving and it was reading all four just fine.

Looks great!

Thanks!

After months of waiting, my wheels and tires were finally delivered yesterday!

Avant Garde M520R Dark Graphite Metallic: 19 x 8.5/ ET +35 up front – 19 x 9.5/ ET +40 in rear
CONTINENTAL EXTREME CONTACT SPORT: 235/40R19 up front – 265/35R19 in rear

I'm really liking the look and can't wait to go on some curvy roads with the new, stickier tires. This new setup gives a weight savings of a little over 7 lbs up front and 9 lbs exactly in the rear.View attachment 60330View attachment 60331View attachment 60332View attachment 60333View attachment 60334View attachment 60335View attachment 60336

It goes underneath but sort of blends into one.

I really wish they'd refrained from riveting this little badge on the spoiler though.......
A nice little M&S badge, fine, but a barcode ?!?!

Yea, that shouldn't be on there at all IMHO! It should just be the splitter, I guess they want you to advertise for them.

Like an idiot let the valet park the car and it came back with damage…

 

[ChaneRZ]

Dang. What did he say?!

Has to file a claim with their office

I'd choose to park a block away in order to avoid valet touching of my car.

This is a restaurant that you would be hard pressed to walkout not spending $300 for a meal with drinks.

I appreciate that. But surely they don't look down their noses if you walk up to the place? And if they do, go somewhere else. Hah.

Nah. That’s not the point. ‘More like you’d think to trust them when they’re parking higher end cars all day and night

Valets do lots of damage to cars when they are out of sight , we had an airport valet service here a few years back , returning 5 days later I had 60 kms more on my X6 than when I dropped it off and the year bumper was crunched ! I NEVER valet cars anymore , I have a friend that had his 500SL front right wheel destroyed by a valet at a high end restaurant last year ........................at your own peril !

[WRXtoStingerGT]

Well two things I can safely say in this thread...

I've never let a vale touch my car and I sure as heck never paid for a $300 dinner!

^Every Kia Service center around me

LMFAO TRUE!!

Today I washed my car twice: in the morning to take off the spots from a spit of rain yesterday evening; and again this afternoon after getting rained on in the mountains.

Day before yesterday I left my car out in the rain to get it washed ! Worked great. Dust and dirt soaked, water beads up, and rolls off. Washed
