What did you do to your Kia Stinger today?

What colour is that?
Lol! I thought the same thing when looking at the photo. So much reflection.

It's Panthera Metal. Ordered it but had not seen it for real until the car arrived. It's a weird one, it's got some purple to it in bright sunlight, but overall its pretty dark. I like it coz to me its a colour that still looks good when the car is dirty.

^^I was going to go with that color too. It's marginally similar to infiniti's KAD - graphite shadow, gun metal like color. Seeing it in person however, it seemed darker. I was concerned about keeping it clean/showing dirt easily. Ended up with ceramic silver.
 
Readjusted the MBRP exhaust so the tips are better centered and ran the car through a car wash to get rid of the salt.

Nice colour, it’s only been available in GT from last year, before that only in lower spec models so you have a rare one here ATM.

You can take the front end off and do it properly or just 3M two sided tape and stick it on. I relocated the GT badge that came on the back of my Limited to the front grill using the tape and she’s held a couple years or so, so far.
Ah thanks alot bro. I’ll probably just do the double sides 3m tape as well.

I know they have some screws? And have to put em behind the grill on your desired location and lock screw it from the back (lol) and should secure.
The proper way to do it is with the screws but I’ll most likely just get some double sided 3m tape for ease and convince. Not sure if I want to go through taking off the front bumper just for a emblem badge .

Or get yourself some VT snorkels and do them both at once. Removing the front is pretty easy and there are a number of good videos regarding it. Either way you’re going to be looking good.

I'll second that on removing the front cover. I have done it twice already, once to put JA scoops on, the second time more recently for the BMS FMIC. It's not hard.

How was the BMS install? That’s next on my list.

It was actually not bad either. One of the ears on the mounting bracket was bent slightly from nominal. Since it is aluminum, a pair of large channel locks let me get leverage to bend it back into position.
The part I had to figure out was how to get the clamp "released" (for lack of a better term) on the driver side charge pipe. It has a large spring clip you need to release and then the pipe just pops out.
Install after that was a piece of cake.

You right bro that would be simple knocking out two birds with one stone. Those vt snorkels are lit
 
Dropped it off a the body shop, see it in a few months. :cry:
