Congrats and welcome. Did you have your car repainted?

How'd they do? Looks great from the photos
They did a good job, eventually.

The dealership sent it to a collision/detailing shop to be done. They took their sweet time, and every time any collision work came it, it apparently took priority over my car.

After 11 weeks, they delivered it, and the dealership sent it back because of several imperfections. Finally, after more than 3 months, I got it back.

The up side was putting over 3,000 winter miles on one of their Sorentos instead of my Stinger. (That and the check for $5K as a good will gesture.)

Winter is a real thing here. Got it undercoated and put an 18 inch rim/snowtire package on it from tirerack.com.

Anybody know why this car doesn't have any kind of splash guards on it? I get dirty water up in the door sill all the time.

Gorgeous car. Almost wish I could have found one when I was looking.

I get water up in the door sill all the time too. But then again, it doesn’t rain out here a whole lot during the year. I just deal with it as it comes. Right now we’re getting so much rain, I feel like I live in Seattle.

Hey [MENTION=2057]John[/MENTION]! Welcome to the forum and GREAT choice! I've got one just like it! LOL

Kia offers molded mud guards to put on the Stinger that will help keep it under a little more control.
