What did you do to your Kia Stinger today?

[Rufus]

Not so much a post about what I've done with Sally today (dropped my son of at preschool) so much as what she's doing to ME as I work from home today..."Wouldn't you rather be out on the road with me than in front of that silly computer?"

"Wouldn't you rather be out on the road with me than in front of that silly computer?"

So true... At my office, I am usually the first one here in the mornings, so I always park right up front where I can see my babe everytime I stand up.
Gotta *not* love cube farms.

Surely that depends on what you're looking at on the computer. #incognitoTab

Installed HKS plugs. Total pain in the dick to do...intake manifold needed to come off to reach the drivers side but it fixed the misfire issues.

Were you running the uncle chip? I can't recall. Regardless I'm glad to see the problem is fixed!

Nvm I saw on another post you are running the chip. That's even better news to me! How does the car feel now?

Take your keys out your pocket, that will stop the pain.

Might I ask what you are using to put the plugs in because if it’s a pain in the dick then you are using the wrong tool! Lol

Thank you for your service, sir! Yes, I hear ya about money. It's tight here as well. I want/need the GT2 but I'm not 100% sure that's going to work. I'm a few months over a year on a brand new Accord so I'm not sure how that's going to work out. Worst case scenario I could always wait a bit. But I'm impatient over this car. I feel like I've been waiting for it since January. But I'm trying to avoid making bad purchase decisions...

In any event, the Volkswagen CC is very nice. I've owned a Jetta and two Passats in the past. And a friend just bought a new'ish Passat a few days ago. I test drove it with her and it was really impressive. Volkswagen really is strong German quality without the price tag...

Today I took the plunge and attempted my first ever de-badge/ re-badge. I learned a few things.
1) A hair dryer seems to provide enough heat so I erred on that side instead of using a heat gun.
2) I chose to primarily use fishing line with plastic wedges for support. 10# test line kept breaking, but 20# test worked.
3) The fishing line will cake with badge adhesive, and this I believe is what created a scuff above the rear center badge. I'll need to do a tiny bit of touching up--nothing too bad, thank goodness.
4) Fishing line is cheap. Don't re-use it once it cakes.
5) DUNCE LIGHT BULB: I attacked the front badge last, mostly because I was leery of even doing it based on some results posted elsewhere on the forum. But as I was wiping off the Goo-Gone from my hands after wiping off the adhesive, I had the bright idea to USE IT AS LUBRICANT while "sawing" with the fishing line. FAR less scratches in the clear coat, and using it keeps the adhesive previously sawn through from RE-attaching to the body.

Awesome job. I'm going to attempt the same on my car this weekend as well!
