• Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

Any tellys with Vent Visors please post a pic and brand of the visors thank you?
 
I have the OEM Kia version I just picked up the other day from the dealer. it isn't installed yet though (Christmas gift). I'll be installing it on a 2022 Ebony Black SX Prestige AWD. I'll post a pic, or try to since I think there are rules on newbies posting links or pics, after I get it installed.

Sweet you should post some pics ounce installed!!
 
Go to KiaTelluride dot org and look up the post "What do you guys think of the OEM Telluride Hood Deflector?". That will give you an idea of what it will look like. Granted, the guy installed the Telluride lettering on top of the deflector, which I am not a fan of, but to each their own.

It'll give you another idea of what it will look like.

I might try and install mine today. If I do, I'll take some pics of it for you. Just got done with rebadging the back end all in Nightfall (KIA logo, Telluride, and AWD) badges and the front KIA logo in Nightfall. Also installed VIP KIA Telluride Quarter Glass American Flag Decal. I may try to do the front Telluride lettering too but the hood deflector will cover it anyway so I feel it will be a waste of time. Might as well keep it and put it on if I ever decide to take the hood deflector off.
 
Here you go. Pretty easy to install. Sorry, the car is a little dirt. Need to get it washed. Leaving the rest of the silver/chrome alone on the car. I've blacked out everything I wanted to do.

Where did you get this VIP KIA Telluride Quarter Glass American Flag Decal? My wife would love it!

Anytime I see a car with a full set of vent visors, I can't help thinking a chain smoker is driving. :unsure: What other reason would you have them?

I had the full set on my previous 2013 Ford Explorer and honestly.......hated them after a bit (oh, and not a smoker at all, but I get your point). I liked the look, especially in the beginning but they aged quickly on me. And then the wind noise from them drove me crazy later on. I had that car for 10 years before upgrading to the Telly and honestly, never remember opening the window up to utilize the deflectors because you couldn't hear anything while driving, which then made them useless to me.

I only put the front one on to black out the Telluride lettering (I have Nightfall lettering but chose to keep them off for now since the hood deflector covers it anyway) an to protect the front of the hood from chips. Hopefully, it will keep bugs from hitting the windshield as well.
 
They’re also called hood deflectors and went out of style 25 years ago. Not a fan, at least this one is really discreet.
To each their own. On Ebony Black, it is pretty discreet. Keep in mind it also serves a function above just styling.

i don't smoke but when i park my car at work in the summer i wish i had them so i can let the heat out so the car is not as hot when i get in it at the end of the day...now i just crack each of the 4 windows a little and have to run out to the car to shut them if it starts to rain...the reason i don't buy them is cause of assumed road noise with them closed on an already noisy car ('13 subaru legacy, wife has telluride)
