What did you do to your Kia Stinger today?

[MerlintheMad]

New wheels arrived today. IIlive the way the color changes based on the direction I'm looking at them from. Should go well with the car's black chrome.

Unfortunately the car is getting some cosmetic surgery for a few days so they're basically paper weights.

Very "spidery" looking. How appropriate!

Are you asking about double sided tape? If so you can get it from any auto parts store, Walmart, Lowe's, or Home Depot.

Didn't think to check an auto store. I looked at the local Walmart and they just had the strips, nothing large enough to fit the whole badge.

I ordered the same wheels, I think...Vertini's RF1.2 Gloss Black/Machine Tint?. Please let me know if there any fitment issues. Thank you!

Good job Rafa, Wish I have the funding to do the right way like you. I find it pretty hard to swallow the price of the E logo air bag conversion, so I went the cheap way of buying a Stinger sticker overlay the KIA.

No more random red stripe on the side of the car.

You removed the Stinger's stinger! That weird quirk is one of the things I like about the car.

Better than the dark tint overlay...clean

That stinger almost stopped me from buying a Stinger.

As soon as I backed out of the gargae the sky opened up. I got drenched just to get a single pic. It was fun!

Maybe in the future the price will drop. I got to tell you, it feels prime to have the original e badge on stering wheel. I was hesitant to spend the money at first. But I bundle up everything in my mind and it sum up to 500 between airbag, wheel caps, hood, trunk badge and materials required to do the job. Then if that was a something that I could live with, then it would be fine. For that reason I bought the airbag. I look at it as a long term investment. It took me a few month to save up for that too. But at the end I think it was worth it.

I like my overlay! But I must say, Kamauxx tail looks nice also!

Sweet wheels Kamauxx! Are those 8,5 front and 9,5 rear? What about ET?

Im probably going to buy wheels tomorrow but I’m struggling to find suitable ones.

I picked mine up from the caryard today and got them to change the badges over for me. Couldn't get the damn badge off the steering wheel though. Grrr. Put 380km on her for her very first drive. I LOVE her.

 

[OliverNuther]

Wow, that’s a hell of a first drive. Grats. It just gets better from here.
