What did you do to your Kia Stinger today?

[AV8R]

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.

Very nice! Have fun driving it! Badge looks good, what about the back badge ? Any photos

None yet. Back badge is the same as the front (but bigger of course) and I changed the ones on the wheels too. Just the steering wheel needs to be changed but I am afraid to try as I don't want to damage anything. The guys at the yard could NOT get it off.

I will post pics of the back tomorrow some time. I'm about ready for bed - had a massive day.

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

Thank you. The long drive was due to the caryard being 2 hours away, so I came home via some nice windy back roads instead of the freeway and it was awesome getting to know things about her. I did NOT want to get out, but have to admit to being exhausted and am ready to hit the sack lol.

The new steering wheel badge goes over the top. Dont remove it!

No it doesn't go over the old one properly. It needs to replace it.

A larger one than the front - the same size as the original back kia badge

I envy you. My dealer is about a 5 minute drive away. No way was I coming straight home when I picked mine up so I ended up driving aimlessly around town for an hour before I went home.

The one in the stinger forum store does go over top. Have a look.

I saw a video from one of the guys on here who changed his steering wheel badge, and we tried but it wouldn't budge. The other video I saw talked about putting the new over the old, and I tried to place it on top but it doesn't quite cover. It is about 1mm out and as I have OCD that would do my head in!!!! hahaha

Is it round or the script badge?

Yes I know that - I am telling you it is a mm out. I would rather replace it to have it looking exactly right

The same as the front one - just a little larger

No the video I saw of the guy who is a member on here had him replace the steering wheel badge.

No - hahahaha - you are not listening to me. He removed it on the video exactly the same way he removed the front and back ones.
