• PLEASE! It is VERY important that this area is not used for the discussion of technical issues with your Stinger. This section is for posting about regional-specific things like Stinger clubs, events, local vendor or dealer recommendations, KiaStinger.com member sightings, etcetera... In other words, I do NOT want people to need to scour through several different sections to find answers about their heads up display. That's why there's a section dedicated specifically to discussions like that. THANK YOU!

Northern Virginia Stingers

whoever this was, best drive home from work ever!

270S to 495@tysons. It was almost our own personal highway View attachment 40453
Are you going in every day? I was definitely running over my 10k mile per year lease. I always thought it would really help if I didn’t really drive anywhere for a few months. Be careful what you wish for I guess :lipsaresealed:
 
For my NOVA brethren, I’m 1000% serious about this post btw. I know it sounds funny.... but I’m looking for a driveway to use.... let me explain.

I live in a townhouse, and have no access to a water hookup or space to really wash my Stinger. And as all of you probably know, there are only 2 or 3 self serve bays in the immediate area to go to. Even then, you’re likely to get kicked out of the bay before you’re completely done with the car.
What I’m hoping is to find someone’s place that would let me use their “wash area” at their house if possible. I will have all my own cleaning supplies, all I ask is use of a hose (or pressure washer if you’re okay with that). I am also willing to pay you for the inconvenience and the increased water bill. I just really want to get back to washing my own car again lol. (Or if anyone has an unknown wash bay near the Kingstown area)

You are always welcome to come out my way and wash to your heart's content. I wash my Babe just about every weekend myself. I have everything you need and am more then happy to share, it just may be a bit of a drive (I am north of Fredericksburg, off Route 17) though. Come out, wash your Stinger and shoot a few rounds at our targets while you are here. :)

I’ll have to take you up on that. You had me at shoot a few rounds. Sounds like a great place to keep my weapon qualification up for work lol

Tomorrow is going to be a really nice day and I will be down at the range about 1PM if you want to join in. Come earlier and we can get both our Stingers washed up beforehand. :)
 
Tried this place today, absolutely packed. I was hoping it wouldn’t be too bad but.... man I’m about to move just for a driveway
I usually get there 8am on weekends and it’s empty but fills up fast around 9:30-10:30am

Hey, I’m in Burke with a driveway and power washer. You can come by for a couple hours and use it....or more can join and have a Stinger wash party. Although there is only one car that can be washed at a time.
 
Anyone have any recommendations for paint/body shops near Dulles? I've order a spoiler and rear diffuser that I want to get paint matched. I reached out to D&V but got crickets.
 
NOVA Automotive off Old Ox Road

Had them do my M&S Spoiler and rear diffuser and they did an outstanding job.

they're just around the corner from my house! mind if I ask how much you paid?

I think it was about $130 for the Diffuser and $100 for the Spoiler (they were done at different times).
 
Hey guys, since I've been working from home I thought it would be a good time to make some 3D printed Stinger parts. Here are the "snorkels" (I hate calling them that btw) that I made for someone on here. They are all one piece and bolt on in 2 spots. You would need to remove the shroud around the radiator (easy to do) or cut a hole in it. Since you guys are local I figured I could give you guys a good deal if I don't have to ship. $75 for all black or $100 for black with any colored tip or the the entire piece in something other than black. Just shoot me a PM if you're interested.

If I did not have my Velossatech's all ready I would be all over this. Nice work!
