Will/would/have you rebadge(d) your Stinger?

Are the hole placements on the front hood on the 2022 in similar locations?

The 2022 nose doesn't have alignment holes in it like the previous models.

I’m trying to find out if the 2022 Stingers have holes under the front emblem. I’m rebadging and finished the rear and now want to take off the front emblem. I’m reading mixed reviews on if there are hole under the badge or not. Again this is a 2022 Stinger. Thanks

I would love to have the big Stinger script on the trunk to replace the Kia emblem. Not that i mind the Kia emblem. I just think the big Stinger emblem is so cool. I would not attempt to replace it myself though and not sure who I would trust to do it properly.

Apparently, some people are rebadging non Kia Stingers lol

Got a kick outta this, especially as a former Pontiac Grand Prix owner. They added all those badges but left the terrible center grand prix on the trunk lid. Real grand prix owners know that's the first one you ditch.

It's a stolen car but obviously somebody really, really likes the gt-line badges. When you 4 cylinder guys look for stock badging and can't find anything, here's why.

I had a 2019 gts had no issues with the Kia logo badges. I now have a 2023 gt2 and have a problem with the plain gt badge on the back. I am going to replace it with a gt2 chrome with red for the 2 badge. I also wanted to put the gt2 badges on the sides but sure if they will look right. Also going to put a TT red badge on the grille ...to me they look badass. I have the microblue pearl paint.

I just ordered the Black GT2 badge (pictured as Chrome and Red) for my 2023 Stinger. There is already a GT on the back. Should I replace the badge or put the GT2 badge on the drivers side front panel

I am replacing my GT badge on the back with the exact GT2 badge you posted and adding them to both side panels and a tt turbo red badge to the grille. I have a 2023 gt2 and won't touch the KIA badges anywhere on the car. I am proud of my stinger and KIA is kicking ass with their vehicles for years now.

This is true. This is my 3rd kia and my 2nd stinger... but... if we are being honest , the Stinger was imagined and created by designers and developers from AUDI and BMW.
The Stinger is a unique vehicle that deserves its own badges, independent of the dealership it is sold from. Just one man's opinion but you are right. Kia has stepped up its game in the last 8 years. Nobody can deny that.

Beginning with the 2022 Stinger, the NEW KIA LOGO is on the front. Has anyone replaced it with an E-badge?

Yes, people have replaced the new KIA emblem with the round E and even the oval E. And, yes, special cars get special emblems. That's been going on for quite a while...

NICE! ...and so true!

Hello everybody from the Stinger World!

I just wanted to share with you an idea i had today to fix an issue i have with my K badge black and red.
To explain quickly the sticker part within the K emblem has bubbles from the almost beginning i received them and despite my efforts to flatten it with my finger it always comes back.
In order to fix the issue and make this logo more personal I decided to create new visuals for it that i will have printed from one of my supplier here in Dubai in high glossy finish UV and heat resistant.
I created several version such as smooth (using christmas ball image) , brushed metal, metallic red effect etc.
Picture attached below.

Also today i received center cap stickers for my after market wheels from Stinger Performance website and it was kind of a disapointment for the quality that was extremely poor from my experience. The size was not as communicated (55mm instead of 59mm) , the 2 ton layers were not aligned properly and some bubbles were stuck within them.

As the previous badge that I had for my OEM wheels with epoxy finish is not available in custom size I also decided to give it a try with a slightly modified design that I will make produced with the same supplier to fit my aftermarket center cap of 68mm.

Please let me know what do you think of the designs and if someone already did some customization I would be happy to see the result.

Best to all of you
