    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...

Was looking a while for Telluride EX w/ Nightfall, but markups were left and right crazy and even the BEST deal I could do was still expensive in my eyes. So I geared my search towards the Sorento- which I quickly fell in love with. The SX Prestige has everything I want. I was fortunate enough to find a dealer about an hour away that had one in stock. Like the Tellurides, the Sorento SX Prestige model is HARD to come by in my area. It's a beautiful vehicle. Wolf Grey/Black Interior. Getting front windows tinted next week and going to black out the emblems/letters next week as well. Really loving it :)
 
Congratulations, and nice job. I'll repeat to you what I just posted elsewhere (maybe I should put this maxim in my forum signature :D): Flexibility -- as to colors, trims, options, even car models if necessary -- is the most powerful shopping tool. With it, you're reasonably in control of your driving destiny, and your wallet. Without it, you're at the mercy of manufacturers' timetables and dealers' markup demands.

You got that right!

And thank you on the congrats! Looking forward to driving more and more now :)

My brother bought one a few weeks ago. They really are quite nice. You can black out the front and rear KIA emblems with these vinyl overlays. And you can black out the Sorento lettering with these...

Thanks! I am really surprised at how well it drives. The turbo really moves for a SUV. It's pretty fun!

I did see those overlays and they looked like a great option, but once I saw them in person I was not a huge fan. I did order hyperdip yesterday and expect that to arrive this weekend. I'll do the lettering and KIA emblems with that :) I'll post pics as well! Getting it tinted next Wednesday too
 
Pics now!! So we can see the before and after 😁🥳
