What did you do to your Kia Stinger today?

[MerlintheMad]

Installed my summer tires and wheels today. Don't recall the stock Pilot Sport 4S's being so loud, but it's like driving in a gravel lot all the time.

Summer tires are noisier than A/S on my Stinger. But I wouldn't go that far in describing the difference.

god dammit 1,5 years later you tell me I forgot a letter. Thank you, I changed it real quick!!

we all thought you were in the "special class" and didnt want to say anything .............bawaaaaaaa

 

[westcoastGT]

I had the wheel cap decals but they dont stick well. Now have the E badged wheel caps.

...........cuz you have clammy sweaty hands ...................................bawaaaaaaaaa

Coming from my Blizzaks, it's a massive difference.

Finally got around to changing out stock spark plugs for Denso 5346's. Dam that plug in the middle of the passenger side.....freaking coil separated leaving the bottom rubber boot attached to the spark plug ... took forever to carefully fish it out. At least now I can run more boost with the JB4 maps 3 & 5 ,here I come.

Only time of the year I look forward to rain storms.

But then ya have to avoid stepping in the pollen puddles all over the place.

Pics to illustrate how ridiculous it is today. I washed my car last night and parked in the garage. My car has sat outside for 4 hours today and looks like this:











This is the worst half-day accumulation I've seen in a few years.

@Kamauxx Hot dayam! where are you? I'm in socal so we do get pollen, but this is crazy!

 

[robz32]

It was like that two weeks ago down here. We get it every year.

North Carolina.

Its a yearly annoyance but I've never seen it accumulate so quickly in just half a day.

I'm definitely popping a preventative allergy pill when I get home.

I just received a painted Stinger script emblem from Importshark. The very left edge (about an inch) lost its stickiness. What type of double sided tape should I use on it? The kind that is currently on it is very thin.

The pollen was like that in the Nashville area a week or so ago.

That's probably a question for the supplier, but 3M VHB is the standard for badge and accessory mounting.

Drink some water, eat a benadryl, change your socks, and do some push-ups. New Moto?

3M ...............they have it in different widths and thicknesses ! good luck

I installed an “E” badge to the front and also fitted the stainless steel door striker lock surrounds.....they were a perfect fit.

I've had the red GT overlays on for nearly 12months without an issue.

Good for you, do you have the 18" wheels with flat centre caps or the 19" wheels with the curved centre caps?

This is what happened to mine, looks terrible:

Perhaps the adhesive on yours wasn't as good.

Mine were like that too. It wasn't an adhesive issue. The edges just didn't fit the contour of the caps. I complained to import shark about it but he couldn't have cared less (that was the last purchase I made from him, over a year ago).

I just got the domed covers from sal. They are very nice quality.
