    Kia Stinger Redbadge How To Guide

    There are two guide post holes on the backside.

    Kia Stinger Xforce Varex Exhaust System

    Dude, if there's a Jun B.L option available, there's almost never a reason to opt for anything else, especially from a place called Tony's Mufflers. ;) Quite literally Jun is legendary in the KDM scene and the undisputed #1 exhaust manufacturer dating back to the early Tib days. I'd really go...

    Kia Stinger Borla Exhaust

    Oh no worries man, it doesn't hurt for me to bug my rep every once in a while. I can always use it as an opportunity to bust his horns for a bigger discount. ;)

    Kia Stinger Borla Exhaust

    I can call my rep on Monday to see if there?s any update. I doubt it tho since the last time I spoke to them there wasn?t supposed to be an update until the end of Q1

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

    Yea that's kinda what I assumed. It's great to hear that your dealership is helping out. May I ask exactly what steps you took when initially attempting to remove the OEM emblems?

    Thanks! We've got some goodies in the works that I'm hoping to give updates about soon :)

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

    Damn, sorry to hear that. I can't imagine how that could have happened at the factory! Hope it works out for ya man

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

    Wow man that's crazy. Can you tell if it's definitely not painted under there or maybe if the adhesive on the OEM emblem is causing the paint to stick to it? If that's the case, the factory may not have allowed enough time for the paint to cure before sticking the OEM badges on.

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

    Nice and clean. Did you have the guide post holes filled and everything painted?

    Kia Stinger H&R Sport Springs

    Eibach should be doing a Pro-Kit and I'm sure ARK will do GT-S springs. Those will very likely both be options in the near future.

    Kia Stinger H&R Sport Springs

    Yea basically the same thing so these are a toss-up. I'm surprised H&R changed their minds on the specs though. They usually go after a more conservative drop, and that's what their original product spec sheet said too. I did make it clear to my sales rep over there that I didn't think that...

    Kia Stinger H&R Sport Springs

    Damn dude you beat me to it. ;) I was actually thinking about doing an introductory group buy on these for forum members. It'll probably be like $275 shipped to US destinations. However there are none in stock...shipping of the first batch will be end of Feb. Also, they changed the specs to...

    Who's getting mud guards on their Kia Stinger?

    I'm going to ask Rally Armor to make something for the Stinger. As soon as we can find a local test fit car in the New York City area, these should be an option. Their products are absolutely top notch.

    Kia Stinger rear bumper reflector LED replacement.

    Ah, understood. All I can say about that from my standpoint as a business in relation to this type of product is that we've been selling similar items in other markets for years and have never seen a single complaint or issue relating to someone getting a ticket. I'm sure Stinger people will...

    Kia Stinger rear bumper reflector LED replacement.

    Lol which part? Plate covers? It's definitely illegal in nearly every state up the eastern seaboard, Cali and Texas. Apparently Illinois too.. http://www.ilga.gov/legislation/ilcs/fulltext.asp?DocName=060500100K27.2

    Kia Stinger rear bumper reflector LED replacement.

    Hmm, well it's understandable to be concerned if you've had issues with cops in the past. That being said, a cover on your plate technically is illegal in most states. On the other hand, adding LED's to enhance the functionality of the brakes and turn signals is highly unlikely to fall into...

    Kia Stinger rear bumper reflector LED replacement.

    I'll do my best to get a vid. As far as the legality thing is concerned, we've sold hundreds of products similar to this for other vehicles dating back to the Tiburon days (probably thousands in total) and I've yet to hear about anyone ever getting a ticket for it. I seriously doubt any police...
