What did you do to your Kia Stinger today?

Not today, but 2 years ago my MBRP went on with @BertBert2019GT help. Still have it, still loving the sound and zero issues in those 2 years. :)

Picked up an online order for the ex. Warehouse guys came out and said I don't think it will fit. I said I won't be comfy but I measured. They were impressed...I was right...I wasn't comfy with the seat pushed up that much but it was doable for the 3km.

And right after that feat, you gave your car a bath, am I right? :P
 
Finally got my trunk deck lid installed. Taking off the oem lid was a nightmare. So much 3m tape it was ridiculous but LOVE the end result. Shout out to Chris from Innovative Kustoms for working in 30 degree weather for me!!

Looks good!
 
Found the last MBRP stainless cat back anywhere in stock (so it seems) at Summit Racing and had my wife order it for me for Xmas. Sorry if anyone else is looking for one, but I found it first
It should be here in a few days, unfortunately I have to wait till Xmas.
I’m actually pretty happy with Summit, last time I was looking for mods they had the Eibach front and rear sway bar set when practically no one else did. Free shipping and never a marked up price.

I just finished this on my 2022 GT-Line today, also. Didn't see your post until now. I also took a few shortcuts with the parking sensors, and I trimmed the heatshields with them still on the car. Also, I slid off the exhaust hangers instead of unbolting them. I also didn't bother to put those 2 hellish metal teeth clips back on. The bumper is totally secure without them. I've read other installs where folks left them off as well.

Good idea about trimming off the edge that's so close to the exhaust. I put 2 layers of Gorilla tape there to provide a cushion in case that tailpipe sways and hits it during cornering transitions. If that doesn't work or it burns off, I'll get out the grinder like you did.

I got it to work but also had to enlarge those same 4 bolt holes on the main body of the hitch. Looking back on it, I think the issue could be avoided by modifying the video and printed instructions somewhat. Currently, the video says to first torque down the support brackets. The print instructions and video instructions would be better to say leave the support brackets loose, and torque down later *after* installing the main hitch. This would have allowed more space for the other bolts to fit without having to enlarge the bolt holes. The space isn't there if one tightens down the support brackets first.

I had some banging of the exhaust on the hitch over big bumps. So I used an angle grinder to take down the corners a bit, and also spread the tailpipes further apart for more clearance by adjusting this bracket. All good now!20211121_135937.webp20211121_134845.webp
 
Got it done added front lip side skirts completion of the adro v2 ark duck lid seibon hood I got the cf bug.. thoughts?
I’m debating whether to take off the gloss black MS spoiler and purchase the Adro CF spoiler now. I kept going back and forth on the V2 diffuser but I just think there is too much going on.

That gets as much random interest as the Stinger. Usually get a few unsolicited offers for it a year.
Yeah, that would sell same day.
