Dammit…..sighhhh….could’ve been worse I guess.

*UPDATE*
Picked up the car last night after the body shop completed the repairs and Kia recalibrated the front sensors. Had no idea what a pain in the ass calibrating those sensors are. Took the dealer 5 days of research and 2 days of driving to calibrate them. I've always been critical of dealership service departments but in this instance, they did a great job. All n all, I was without the car for 3 weeks but its done and I'm super happy. Pretty amazing what a good shop can do. No signs whatsoever that a repair was ever done. I had the body shop fill in the holes from the license plate holder and the front badge. I love the look and I'm ECSTATIC to have her back!

So clean looking!

EDIT- I'd give it a month or so and PPF it

Looks good. I'm a fan of a lack of badges too. I don't mind the stinger logo on the back but I'd be fine without a front hood logo as well.

Yeah I really like the clean look. I'll have to eventually put the front plate back on via a tow hook holder. You cant park it anywhere in the city without getting a ticket for no plate. The wife and I stay as far away from downtown as we can so driving it around and parking in my garage should be fine for now. Now the car is a real headscratcher lol

No front plate here for like months. Then again I'm not in the city. When ever someone asks I just say that I have the plate but I'm waiting on the dealer to get me the bracket and it's on backorder . I have been pulled over for not having any plates and he let me go lol.
