I'm new here but not to the car scene, and this is my first KIA. Had it for just over a week now and love it. It's the 2011 sx with a few goodies. I just put on the front bug deflector and the rear spoiler. Everything looks great and fit perfect. The dealer was very pleasant to deal with and very helpful.

Here is a few pics.

Welcome...looks great! My guess is you won't have to worry about bugs for a while

Is that a big bug that was deflected near the left headlight?

I looked closer and it looks like it might be the block heater cord.

Yes, that is the block heater cord... Durning the cold winter months it will get used every day. It's alot better for the engine to be a little warm when you start it. I hope the deflector will stop the front hood from stone chips as well as deflecting those huge skitters we get up here in the summer time.

Does anyone know if the front and rear badge sizes have changed from 2010 - 2011. I called korean auto imports this today and they said they didn't have any "K" badges for the '11. I assumed they were the same size, but on there advise I cancelled my order. The dealer doesn't have any '10 unit left to measure if they are in fact a different size....

Hmm the 11 SX doesn't have an exhaust tip?

it's an ex (not an sx).

spoiler looks good though, and i like the deflector...might have to grab one of those to save my paint for as long as i can.

So how does it handle in the snow with the stock tires?

 

[zeoswj]

It doesn't like the snow. But I have a locked and lifted jeep for the snow, it allways gets me to work and back.
