    {{ ImportShark }} Foglight Bezels Product Development

    Layman's explanation copied from another Stinger owner btw.... "Those vents were never meant too cool the brakes. They are there to create a curtain of high speed wind across the tire. Prevents eddies and tumbling air from forming in wheel arches. This improves aerodynamics and high speed...

    {{ ImportShark }} Foglight Bezels Product Development

    We're starting on product R&D for a fog bezel insert for the front bumper to add some more function to the front bumper vents. They can be made so that air still passes through even if fogs are there. If this were a product that you'd be interested in, would you prefer dual fogs on each side or...

    Kia Stinger Badge - Rebadge, Debadge or Leave it Stock , what is your preference?

    Not right now unfortunately. It's actually pretty difficult for us to get large inventories of the KDM Stinger lettering, so whatever trickles in has to split between having available for orders of standard chrome to ship right away and what can go to the customization shop to be treated and...

    {{ ImportShark }} NEW! Muffler Tip Covers

    Probably. I'll check the numbers when we get our first inventory in. There are a number of pre-sales already, so inventory levels are uncertain right now. We've had a bunch of orders from dealerships interestingly enough--probably more than individuals! Kinda odd methinks...

    Kia Stinger Badge - Rebadge, Debadge or Leave it Stock , what is your preference?

    We sold a bunch recently, so I'm sure you'll see pics pop up soon enough. Matte black (and matte black w/ matte clearcoat) looks like this finish... Glossy black looks the same as OEM paint--it's clearcoated to have that showroom finish. If you've seen a black Stinger on the road or at your...

    What's your Kia Stinger Side Mirror Cap Preference?

    Just estimates....but I'd expect the hood and side vents to be $150/pair, fronts to be $200/pair and the rears to be $100/pair. I'll be posting quite a bit more info about these in about 2 weeks in this subforum. Maybe sooner, but we'll see. I might be around all day on Tuesday because a...

    What's your Kia Stinger Side Mirror Cap Preference?

    Would you prefer real carbon over wrap if that was an available option? I'm talkin about all the "vents" on the car--front bumper, hood, sides, rear bumper. Thoughts?

    {{ ImportShark }} NEW! Wheel Cap Sneak Peek

    The inventory is due to arrive this week, so I'll be sure to post a bunch of pics. The width is 2mm, so that should be fine visually.

    {{ ImportShark }} NEW! Muffler Tip Covers

    Go figure, that's the one color we weren't going to stock. I can still get them though. Worst case, our Korean office can always ship direct to your door if we don't have the particular color you want on hand here at our US location. ;)

    {{ ImportShark }} NEW! NGM's Two New Axleback Exhausts

    To my knowledge, the two muffler sections are the same on the 2.0 and 3.3. NGM did their initial testing and design on a 3.3, but I'm pretty darn sure these will work on a 2.0 as well. I should have them here next week if you'd like to give it a try. Equally as important, I've gotta find a...

    {{ ImportShark }} NEW! Muffler Tip Covers

    Lol ooooh you mean the car itself? Yea that makes more sense. I got a bit worried that my guy who processes orders missed something since we're really on top of orders for Stinger parts. I don't think the Olympics will have any effect on significant commerce such as Hyundai/Kia auto exports...

    What's your Kia Stinger Side Mirror Cap Preference?

    We've had a lot of problems with those overlay-type mirror covers. It's never a perfect fit, but even when you do get them aligned properly, it's VERY obvious that they're overlays because you can see the edges. Personally I always opt for stock. Covers are just bleh. Now if you're talking...

    {{ ImportShark }} NEW! Muffler Tip Covers

    I assume you mean something that you ordered elsewhere? If something has already taken a month and you haven't heard anything, then there's definitely a problem.

    {{ ImportShark }} NEW! Muffler Tip Covers

    Will do. EMS shipments are bottlenecked right now leaving from Korea due to the Olympics! I'm hoping to have them in about 10 days, but can always ship direct from Korea to your door if needed.

    {{ ImportShark }} NEW! NGM's Two New Axleback Exhausts

    NGM sent me these two pre-production samples and I'm looking to arrange for local test fitting towards the end of next week.

    {{ ImportShark }} NEW! NGM's Two New Axleback Exhausts

    Next Generation Motorsports (aka NGM) was absolutely legendary in the Tiburon scene and made a few products for the Genesis Coupe and Veloster. They've primarily been doing contract work in the GTR and BRZ market since 2011, but are apparently developing some goodies for the Stinger too. The...

    Ark Performance GRIP Catback System - KIA STINGER 3.3TT

    ARK doesn't usually provide those unfortunately. Their Korean counterpart generally provides the dyno numbers, but I don't recall having branded charts for their past products.

    Kia Stinger Carbon Fiber Front and Side Splitters from Adro Sports

    I assume those are inserted after the plastic retainers are through the openings on the fender. When the screw is inserted, that would expand the retainer and keep them in place.
