Hi Folks - I have a 2012 Genesis Black Noir Pearl on order/transit from a dealership a few states away. I would like to order a rear deck lid spoiler for it and I need to enter the correct paint code. Anyone have it? I have attached the picture of where you find it on your car (the ID badge...

Just test drove the 2012 genesis (very nice). I was thinking that I would buy the platinum (silver) car but when I saw the black noir I was really taken with it. It looks so sharp. For those of you who own a black genesis do you have any regrets? Cheers, Newman

on black at least. i will try to take some pics (probably hard to see but i'll try) of the area on my right rear door that was touched up by on of those "touch up spray" artists that go to dealer lots to touch up minor scratches etc. I know from experience now that on black unless it's in an...

I'm having issues with a NEW 2011 3.8 Track I just bought almost 4 weeks ago with 25 miles on it. I saw some wavyness in the drivers door paint about a week after I bought it. It was hard to decipher exactly what the issue was because of all the salt and road grime we've had here in the mid...

I have a 2011 Sapphire Blue Genesis and It has orange peel. Does anyone else’s?

I am curious to know what the paint process is for this car. How many coats of paint? Wet sanded between coats? How many clearcoats? Scratch resistant clearcoat, etc. Also, is Hyundai going to start advertising the car?

Is it only me that thinks the Hyundai Touch-up Paint Stick sucks?? The part number for the Hyundai Paint Stick is 00284-02009 (plus your paint code). The first time I used it, it worked "acceptable" (not great, only acceptable) but after that first use, it really sucks. I tried to use it...

Hey ive got a 4.6 blk on blk (black opal) I'm considering throwing some grafix, flake, or two-tone over the black opal base. Im suffering from brain fog, so Id like to hear what you all think any pics would be awesome too!

...anyone else experience the paint flaking off in good size pieces of their 18" rims? Not just one wheel, but every one of 'em. Only have 25k miles on my sedan. My Hyundai service advisor said it's the first time he's seen this. Due to the type of finish (hyper silver?) that they are not...

All of my cars have not had problems with paint chips on the front hood except one. This was my Nissan Maxima (96) -- It was terrible. Lot's of paint chips. I am trying to decide if I want a Clear 'Bra' installed. Comments on this?

I had some body work done to the Genesis a couple weeks ago. The shop gave me a decent amount (vile) of the middle coat. I have about 4 spots on my car right now that are very small (about half the size of a pencil eraser) 2of which are one roof right next to the windshield. I just opened up...

Does anybody have any experience with, or advice regarding, protective paint films (3M, VentureShield, etc.)? I had a dark (aubergine/purple) Azera for 4 years, but it wasn't more than a few months before the front end was pocked with gravel dings. If I can protect my black Genesis I'd like to...

Hi all, I have a quick question for you guys. The morning after purchasing my 3.8 grand touring, I saw a paint chip on the hood. It's about 2-3mm round and it's just the upper layer of paint/clearcoat. The primer was still underneath. Obviously this chip was present before I bought the car. It...

I purchased this item a few weeks ago, largely because of reading what users had to say about in this thread. It arrived this week and I was excited to show it to my family and install it on the Genesis. Unfortunately, it wasn't received as warmly as I hoped, so long story short ... it needs...

Recently I noticed 6 small (piece of dry rice) paint chips (its black underneath) on the bottom lip of the frame under the front doors in my Genesis. 3 on each side. When the doors are shut you can see them from the outside. They are being caused by my shoes getting in and out of the vehicle. I...

Has anyone had to use touch up paint on their genesis? My wife's genesis has quite a few chips and I was looking at dr colorchip but they don't have the exact paint code for the platinum metallic, which is AU. I have used lanka before on other cars and the result is ok, but have heard from...

I want either a Track package or the R-spec package I heard about coming out later on in the model year but on the web site, the blue colors are not offered on the Track packages. Does anyone know how Hyundai is about ordering colors on their cars? How much do they normally charge for it?

I picked up my brand new platinum/black 4.6 w/Tech on Friday. The car had a total of 32 miles on the odometer this morning when I began a day trip from the S.F. Bay Area to the Sierra foothills to visit a cousin. Just returned with the odometer now showing 220 miles. The good news is, the trip...

I was walking in town today and saw a black V6 Gensis parked on the street. After looking sideways and from the hood, the paint looks to have some orange peeel to it. There's also happen to have a MB S550 to the right and a Lexus ES next to it. The ES was also black while the S550 was silver...
