What did you do with your DH Genesis today?

[G530]

1Fstyota, for quicker acceleration. Have you installed lightweight wheels?

Light weight wheels = $$$, I have no intentions of buying 4k plus rims for this thing.

Guy came to the shop mounting these on a highly modded STI, couldn't help but steal one and try it out +38 and I'd say it looks right at home on the genny.

So far in my 2015 Genesis 3.8 AWD Ultimate....
1. Painted calipers red....will add Genesis in white letters tomorrow
2. Added Mobis LED foglights
3. Installed a switch for the fogs on the fuse access panel, left of steering wheel
4. Added a Bazooka powered subwoofer and tied it into the factory amp. Sounds fantastic and would be an easy upgrade with what I know now.
5. Replaced the yellow DRL's and turn signal 1157 lights with Sylvania LEDs. All white, all the time (not racist, just not switchback yellows)
6. Installed the AEM Cold Air Intake. Very satisfied with the improvement in sound, particularly from 2300 rpm to 3000 rpm. My butt-o-meter says the car is quicker but I'll probably never know for sure unless I race my wife in her 2015 Genesis 3.8 AWD Ultimate.

I'm running out of stuff to do. Any ideas? Want more power....

+1 on the sub wiring. I was just thinking that the system needed a little extra bass boost.

Look into TSW bathurst And tell me if they will cost you 4K before tires

I looked at them, not really interested. I'm talking the likes of CCW, HRE, or forgeline wheels.

A well shined black is really nice. Should look very nice once you are done with it so post photos when you do.

Times have changed on one item. Back in the '50s and '50s, the first thing we did when we bought a car was to take off any of the hood and trunk ornaments. Holes had to be filled and then painted but a lot of guys never got past the primer stage. Today we proudly put new emblems.

Just finished changing my wheels and paint the brake calipers. Waiting on the decals to come this Thursday to put it on and take some awesome pictures.

Well, sh*t..... I though it was heated steering wheel turns out...the power steering is out! I was on my way to shoot Bald Eagles on Mississippi River in Iowa, then I had to cancel my trip and go back to the dealer. It sucks.

btw. They never seen this before, lol

Got the car clear bra wrapped finally, dude did a amazing job. Did the hood, mirrors, door edges, door cups, fenders, and bumper.

What kind of wheels are those....I really like!!!

 

[BlancaGenny]

The last decently warm day for awhile (45 degrees) Replaced the Floating H with the Genesis trunk lid emblem. Much better IMO.

Spring is out in North Carolina! I'm done with the modding at the moment but more to come in the future once I get more budget lol

That's the first time I've heard of that on this forum.

It's pretty expensive to fix. I'm glad the warranty did cover it - $4559.79

And it’s only at 18k miles. FWIW, my ‘94 Impala’s power steering rack didn’t need service until 2011 (210k miles or so)

Ran into a few little complications but everything was installed and I'm happy

G80 sport headlights us model and led fog lights

 

[Aquineas]

Young, those lights look fantastic! Do you have a link to which ones you got? And what were you complications?

I purchased the headlights aecond hand off of eBay.just made sure they were from a USA model .

I had someone install them for me. Since these auto level and our 15 models don't have auto level the lights were stuck in one way and he had to mod it to be able to manually adjust it and when the drl is on its straight orange which is weird but I'm fine with it. But stays white when the headlights are on but does a switch back when the turn signal is activated. No real features were lost . still got my auto light function
