What did you do to your Kia Stinger today?

[Luminary]

Look at that line of blue. Is that a coincidence?

Yes it was. The show started at 10 AM, I got there before 9 AM and it was already packed. I was surrounded by Ford's.
Mine was the only KDM at the show, and only 1 of just a few imports total so it was especially awesome I was picked. Most were American muscle.

Top 50. Is that like a 9th place ribbon on sports day.

I bet and likewise for you.

Did you see the TROPHY? When do you get a trophy for 9th place anything? Looks like the top fifty vehicles are equal: if there were only 51 cars, then your "point" might mean something.

Congrats, Looks like a pretty sweet 68/9 Torino you're parked next to there. Did they park the cars in color groups?

They did not (just coincidental) and yup, the Torino and the owner were super nice! There were SOOOO many nice cars there, it was a great event and I had a great time.

Hey there , l just added glass screen protector for head unit...looks heaps better with gloss appearance rather than matt ...Also put some led downlights in garage for when I'm cleaning car

How did this work out for you? Is there significant glare?

Was cleaning the other day and came across a screen protector I bought for an old tablet some 7 years ago (asus t100tam). It's a 10.1" 16:9 format so more square than rectangular than the 10.25" in the car. I had to trim about 3" off the bottom to make it fit. Notice the reflection in the garage from the passenger seat to some extent. Haven't driven the car yet with it.

Hopefully it works out. Using a bright light I already see a few very thin scratches on the display. Don't use finger nails or wear rings when touching it. I too would prefer a matte protector, but already have this one on hand. It's a dry static cling type so no worries of residue if I have to remove it.

Clearly you missed something, not sure if it was pointy or not. But don’t worry you’re not the only point seeker. Carry on pointing out the pointless.

Debadged; front end PPF; ceramic on body, wheels, and calipers. Detailer threw in a free coating on the tires - allegedly keeps that showroom slick look for up to 6mos!

Kicking myself slightly because I wish I had thought to replace the Stinger script on the trunk with the gloss black version from the shop. Oh well - I've ordered it anyway and that'll be my next weekend project!

Looks great. I'm getting paint correction and ceramic on the car done soon as well.

I agree on the black script, that's one of the car colors where black would stand out. On mine, too dark wouldn't work.

Have to say I much prefer my tail lights with the tint on.

Tint does look good but is a big no-no around these parts.

cops?

 

[Robilar]

Really why? I've only tinted the white center section, not the tail lights.

Could just be a case of me being ill-informed. But in Pennsylvania, tint laws are super strict. They require 75% VLT on all glass for sedans
