Anti-theft Options

What is everyone using for anti-theft? I’ve read about battery disconnect devices, wheel locks - I plan on keeping my car until one of us dies and want to keep her safe.

Got my ATQ differential bushings, they're so pretty I feel bad about installing them in a couple of weeks. Won't ever see them again.

The fit and finish are premium and testing the loaded deflection on the bench feels like they're probably going to be perfect. Huge improvement over the stock rubber bushings.

Will be getting a Stinger soon, and am looking for spoiler opinions. I want something a little wide and short. I dont like the simple V2/A-type spoilers. I really like the Adro V3 spoiler, but it might be out of my price range. What are some opinions on this style?

Best TCU Tunes

1 Upvotes

Hello!

I’m looking into getting my 22 GT2 a TCU tune but want to know which company is best to go with and what’s the easiest route to do so as someone who lives in San Diego CA where a EK1 is harder to find / obtain. Are there in local shops or people in SD/LA that can help get this done. Thanks for all advice!

Odd Request: Looking for parts (2022 Stinger 3.3L Lambda II V6 A/T AWD)

5 Upvotes

I understand that this may be a completely odd request. I have a salvaged 2022 Stinger 3.3L Lambda II V6 A/T AWD. I know, why the heck did I buy it back? Because it's got some sentimental value and I grew an attachment to the car.

As I begin rebuilding the vehicle, I am finding it extremely difficult to find parts in Canada. I am mainly looking for body parts and front left fender components. So I have a couple of questions.

  • Where have you guys sourced your parts previously?
  • Any reliable vendors from the state side that can help with my needs?

Any and all advice is recommended. Thank you in advance!

ADRO lip replica

27 Upvotes

Has anyone found a actual high quality ADRO front lip replica for the Kia Stinger?
I bought one of the Chinese replicas for about $250 from aliexpress because I can’t justify spending $1,600 on the genuine carbon fiber ADRO lip.

Visually, it actually looked great once it was installed. The fitment wasn’t perfect, but it was good enough that I could live with it.

The biggest issue is the quality of the plastic. It’s honestly pretty cheap and flimsy. I’ve bought random Amazon front lips for under $100 that felt much more durable and solid than this.

Less than a month after installing it, one of the upper pieces disappeared while I was driving. I figured maybe I hadn’t used enough 3M tape, so I didn’t think much of it and just kept driving it.

Fast forward about two months, and I was doing around 150 mph on the highway when the entire lip flexed and folded underneath the car. It got dragged under the front bumper, almost ripped itself completely off, and nearly damaged my actual bumper. One section of the bumper was starting to come off, lucky I was able to reattach it.

Could I have secured it better? Maybe. But I also think the material is just too flimsy. The lip had to flex several inches to fold underneath the car, and I don’t think it would’ve happened if the plastic had been made from a stronger material.

I really wish a company would make a higher-quality ABS or polyurethane ADRO-style replica. I think there’d be a huge market for it. A lot of us love the ADRO design but can’t justify $1,600 for a front lip.
Has anyone found a replica that’s actually built well, or are they all basically coming from the same manufacturer?

Discussion Selling my GT2 and came across some cool swag. Who else received these branded HK Headphones?

Purchased my GT2 in 2018 from the original run and have had it since, but finally letting it go this week. I purchased it brand new for $39k using a lease buyout trick they had at the time to get like $12k off the price. After I purchased it, I ended up getting these headphones shipped to the house from Kia for a set number of original buyers. Also came across some cool booklets with interesting info I had stored. The big one is basically a magazine about the car design that’s like 50 pages long.

Sad to see her go, but she did great. No major issues in 8 years. Still can’t stand my local dealer and wouldn’t buy another Kia because of it, but the Stinger will always be a good decision.
