First mod done!

[Ek9max]

Got rid of all the Kia badges. Did the steering wheel too.

I dig the look at the E badges.

De-badge and re-badge looks to have completed without any issue, looks good. Did you use heat to remove the original emblems or fishing wire/goo gone?

 

[Ruturaj]

Looks good. I have rear emblem just sitting at home for so long. I need to put it on.

I actually had a plastic tool that pried them off in seconds.

I thought I was in the clear until it took 2 hours of goo gone and scrubbing to get all the glue off . Huge pain in the butt .

SAME FIRST MOD AS WELL
picked up my car at the beginning of the month, was waiting for a week while it was shipped from Korea. I read so many threads where ppl had issue with de-badging so I didn't want to waste any time , did not want the glue to be too hard to remove or having paint discoloration... Took our time and the glue was gone so fast ! No clear coat issue , nothing, was so happy I did this right away. Did the wheel caps ,steering wheel overlay, and swap the fob to the E as well !
Wish I could post but Iam too new to the forum ( you can see my profile pic though haha)

How'd you swap the key?

How'd you swap the key?

bought a fob from a KIA re-seller in Korea . Open the fob up (like you would if you needed to change the battery) and swap the inside of it ! unfortunately you have to do that as you wouldn't be able to program the Korean fob with the Canadian specs... go figure.

Got a link to the part? I wonder if I can order it through my dealer
