What did you do to your Kia Stinger today?

Oh man if that is tape with an adhesive backing on it you better hope it stays on because it is going ruin the Alcantara.

Thought about that. It’s paper underneath, ran it to overlap the vinyl to adhere to itself.

That's good but it's just a matter of time before your hand, finger, nail or ring catches on it while driving and wrecks it.

Why are you harshing my buzz bro?

Sorry dude, I just know it's not going to work out long term, vinyl on a soft steering wheel just don't mix.

Got any pics?

My Stinger is a filthy bitch right now. If you can ignore that, I'll snap a couple. ; )

Have done a couple things in the last few months, rear M&S diffuser and Element 6 steering wheel:

That looks awesome!

Modeled up some tweeter pods for my audio system upgrade (pic is prototype, will smooth out that seam before printing the final product).

I

got the 7201 (Amazon). Hand pump. Only takes 9-10 pumps to get it going.

also can be reversed to push to transport containers.

Thanks. Decided to try the EWK 6.5L based on reviews, price, and manual / pneumatic option. We'll see. I have an air compressor, which would be my main mode of operation.

Considering the gt has almost 7 liters of oil (and you will get that much with the extractor)… you may have to stop midway and empty.
I swear the dealer over filled the oil. I had like 7.5 l (not quarts).

Finally installed my front and rear rotors, pads, and steel lines.
Even with that EBC break-in coating still intact, there’s a noticeable difference. Took the opportunity to clean out all the garbage built up inside the calipers too.

 

[ChaneRZ]

That’s great!

Very nice. Something I considered doing but you lose the heating element in the carbon fiber areas, and in the arctic north where we live, I need FULL heating on the steering wheel.

I'm pretty sure it retained the element for the entire wheel. I turned it on when I first installed it to ensure it worked and the cf areas got very warm along with the leather but I'll double check tomorrow.

Nice! I'm digging the front discs.

I'm currently on week 5 of waiting for EBC YellowStuff pads from backorder. Cquence rotors, front pads, and fluid are standing by for now. My OEM pads and rotors have a mild shudder and the bite is gone. I can't wait to upgrade.

Also, nice "color math" here. YellowStuff + Brembo = Federation Orange

Meant to post up pics after the ARK GTF install, but here’s a side shot for your viewing pleasure…

Oh wow, nice. Where did you purchase the pads and rotors and how much? (And what part numbers )

Yeah you're right, the heating element is only in the leather portion of the wheel. I dont really mind that since its pretty easy to keep your hands in those spots while driving.
