GT2 Hood w/o plastic vent mouldings

[maddrewler]

so I have a GT2 AWD but it has no hood “vents”

I’m wondering if anyone knows how rare or how common this Stinger variant is.

Here’s a photo

I like it as well!! How did you happen to get one without hood vents??

Interesting. Definitely a first and something that a GT2 should not come with.

I think you may have an aftermarket replacement, because not even the 2.0s come without the hood vents.

Do you have photos of the underside of the hood?

Thanks. I like it too. i'm just curious how rare/common this is

I can get a photo in a bit... what would you be looking for?

 

[robz32]

Well you will need to look for any indication that it is in fact a Kia/Hyundai part. The emblems should be engraved in the metal.

This is very odd and interesting

Rare? I never seen one like that. Pretty sweet. I doubt it, did you buy that used?

Looks like early production show cars? - OP what's your build date?

Wow! You may have a one of a kind

Now THAT'S a unicorn!

Awesome! No fake vents. Very smooth.

This is really odd? maybe a pre-production car? maybe an after market? who knows?

OP - answer these question...

Seeing as it’s filmed June 2017 I’d say it’s a pre production and not for sale.

Hey, can you check it with magnet? Wondering if this one was made from aluminium.

 

[Kato_the_kia_stinger]

This sounds fishy to me.

Fascinating. Stinger Clickbait!
