What did you do to your Kia Stinger today?

@washguy here's your "gold" color for your Red! :thumbup: (he was asking on the other thread)
 
I'm so torn right now. My car is Ceramic Silver and I can't decide if I want raw titanium, adamantium or like black sapphire. I feel like the Ti will be a sweet contrast. The adamantium will be complimentary. Black sapphire is well lets face it...a sexy ass black lol. Everyone does black though. HALP!

Interested to see your results.. I have Ceramic Silver as well..

Hmm, in the same boat as you... I was also thinking like an anthracite gray or a satin black

I know that I do NOT want black. It is almost too easy. It is the same issue that I had with PM as a body color...it is not unique AT ALL! That black sapphire is as close to black as I will get. I like anthracite as well, but I am not sold. The pics that they have on their site are not very good. I wish that they would go out of their way to not just rely upon PS and an overly lit color sample.

You don't need to wait for me, dive in and make a decision lol.

I really am looking for suggestions...especially from the CS/SS owners!
 
@BlasterJax93 thanks!

Here is what I am looking at, but all of the customer supplied pics SUCK!

Adamantium

Black Sapphire NOT MATTE! I want a ton of gloss on it!

Raw Ti

Realistically, I could just bust out the ol' laptop and PS the colors onto my car...BUUUUUUUUUUT I don't feel like it.

Ooo, the raw titanium looks nice. Wonder how that would look with the red calipers
 
This doesn't really help because of all of the shadows in the shots.
Literally any automotive marketing guy that has 5 mins of experience knows better than that!
 
So I gapped my stock plugs and subsequently dropped a 10mm socket into the abyss between the turbo and the motor. Did yall know there is a black hole in that space? Once something goes in it does not come back out.

Why go through the trouble of gapping the stock plugs? They're out why not upgrade?

Slowly working down my "to-do" pile.

Today I regapped my stock plugs and installed some horsepower-in-a-box

Also installed the new BMS "maintenance free" OCC.

Because I didn't have them yet and didn't want to wait to test map 3 or 5 because I am impatient which is also why I dropped a socket.
 
Bought a Akrapovic Exhaust Tips:)
