Thanks for another great video! All two of my modifications were honorable mentions: tint & painted calipers. 😄 Out of curiosity, if you had gotten a Yacht Blue instead of white, what color would you have painted the calipers?

Do you see any range effects since you modified the car? I’m in the market and ur a huge inspiration, just curious if the range changed at all?
@Emadifications
@Emadifications 7 месяцев назад
Hey appreciate the kind words. As for range, no noticeable impact. When I first got it, filled up range read 250-265, and 24k miles later, I'm still getting similar ranges. I'm sure going down to 18s or something may add 5-10 miles or something, but just not worth it or needed to me. Many others have done similar mods and not really seen any big drop..most of your range will be impacted by climate control, how hard you drive, how much highway driving you do, and uphill/headwind driving.

Hi, good video & nicely done. But, apart from wheels, tyres & springs, I wouldn’t call these modifications. They are cosmetic; not my thing. They look great, so congrats, but won’t help put a smile on my face on a windy road. I have a ‘23 AWD GT Line in Australia and think it needs significant improvement in the handling. Undersprung & underdamped. Rolls, pitches, wallows and floats too much for spirited road driving. So, I’m looking at springs that don’t lower it, (we have lots of gravel roads) and shocks to match (or coilovers). I’ll leave sway bars to last until I see if it still needs them as it may not with the reduced roll secondary to increased spring stiffness. May only need them to fine tune over/understeer. I see zero value in tyre or wheel changes until all this is achieved. The standard suspension can’t keep the standard tyres flat on the road so to me that has to be achieved. Anyone else got comments on the Storm springs, or others? Or ideas on shock absorbers available? Cheers

Do you need heat resistant paint for the calipers?

Yes. I used engine enamel. Brake caliper paint can stand slightly more heat but engine enamel works well.

It’s weird the difference in attitudes to customising cars between the USA and UK. I got a metallic black EV6 GT, the only mods I thought it needed were a 900w active sub as the stock Meridian stereo has weak bass, mats (the KIA ones including the trunk) and PPF at the front as I like to track it. Albert Biermann and his team went to huge lengths to tune the suspension, I’d be concerned that messing with the wheels or tyres (21” Michelin PS4s) would spoil it! You’re car does look good with the white and black though.
@Emadifications
@Emadifications Год назад
I have a nasty habit of not ever keeping many components of a car stock. And I also couldn't do the bubbly suspension. It was hard to enjoy it. Things from the factory are always a bit tame to me. But I just grew up modding everything I owned.

Did you add Ambient lightning? That's makes no sense when you can buy the car with Ambient lightning from the factory. It will probably be cheaper and look as good or better.
@Emadifications
@Emadifications Год назад
The Wind trim doesn't come with any ambient lighting. So anyone who bought the wind doesn't get it, although they added an option later on but it only added some limited foot lighting like I added. To get the good ambient lighting, you had to get the GT line. Many people didn't get the GT line so what im showing is a $12 add that can add some level of ambient lighting to the thousands who didn't buy the GT line or above. To your point, yes. The GT line ambient lighting is next level. It's great. But we all didn't get that.

I'd rather paint the calipers than putting covers, to me it looks tacky since it offers no function other than looks
@Emadifications
@Emadifications Год назад
I painted mine. Painting is also purely aesthetic, so one could argue that caliper covers do the same thing. but I continue to think that caliper covers are tacky cause they give a fake perception of a big brake kit, so i cant get behind it.

@Takusman Год назад
@@Emadifications you worded it better than me lol, that's what I meant. But also if you do not have big rotors it just looks silly with a caliper bigger than your wheel, that's why painting them is better.
