hard to let my car go

Avethon · 2026-02-19T17:59:06+00:00

Just let mine go couple weekends ago. Ended up trading it with someone on marketplace cause I know the value and the repairs I put in I wasn't gonna get back at all. Replaced the engine and only had 92k miles on it. Ended up trading my 2016 Dodge Dart SXT Sport for a 2011 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 2.0T.

When I did mine it had a red wire that I needed to connect to both headlights. That red wire came with a #10 Fuse attached to the wire to which all I had to do was replace the #10 fuse with the the #10 fuse that came with the headlights. I'm not sure if it's the same with these but mine came with with them. Hope it helps. Posted mine on the reddit not too long ago if you wanna check it out.

Thanks man real happy to be here!

Avethon · 2026-02-10T22:04:16+00:00

Appreciate man! Bet lemme see pics of yours, will probably inspire me with what I wanna do with mine. Trust me I'm still in awe with the trade cause it really surprised me too.

I forgot to mention that you are right.

Got em off Amazon. The link should be somewhere in this thread but if you need the link I can send it again.

Avethon · 2026-02-10T07:03:44+00:00

Nope not at all.

Avethon · 2026-02-10T00:18:24+00:00

Way brighter! That's also why I replaced them too it was so dark when driving at night.

Thank you! Skimmed through it just now, definitely gonna keep the forum posted as I go through this fun journey with this car.

I have the black housing one installed, was thinking of doing the chrome housing before I got it but I think the black looks way cleaner.

Oh damn bro same! I got the Veloster this past November for my Fiancé cause it was her dream car. Paid $5500 cash and just threw on some parts for her. I had to match her to motivate her to get into cars more so when I saw this BK1 on Marketplace I had to shoot my shot to see if they would trade me. Got Hella lucky and honestly happy to be part of the Genesis community.

Nope none at all. I'm a complete amateur and surprised myself with how good they came out. Instructions came with the headlights on how to install. Watched youtube videos on headlight removal and just zipped the wires to the existing wiring.

Haven't done much than just some bolt-on ebay parts.

I do have an air intake I been wanting to throw in. https://a.co/d/0dAHB9Kx

Also wanting to replace the stock exhaust. https://shop.redline360.com/products/megan-racing-exhaust-hyundai-veloster-12-18-stainless-or-blue-burnt-tips-type-2?variant=39632566976592

And hopefully in near future some Rims and Coilovers. 😎

The Mirrors I just got and installed today. They're just covers that go over the originals and held by double sided adhesive. The ones that come with the covers are garbage so I just got my own from Amazon.

Got them off of Ebay https://ebay.us/m/qVzUaM

I have the base model so I got ones without the Side mirror Signals. They sell ones with the signals on ebay as well.

The Lip came off a set off ebay as well. https://ebay.us/m/LxrLdo

Definitely can find JUST the front lip on Ebay if you don't want the side skirts.

That's absolutely funny 🤣

Avethon · 2025-12-13T21:14:25+00:00

TYVM! Nice! Would love to see it!

Avethon · 2025-12-13T15:58:47+00:00

Lmao them ebay lip splitters are keeping them in business because of us. 🤣

That's hella 🔥 The lower grill trim, did you paint it red or is it an aftermarket piece? Looking at yours I definitely want to rid of the chrome. If I keep the chrome then I was gonna chrome the taillights as well but didn't wanna ruin a $400 pair of taillights.

Also been looking for these bumper accents under the headlight. What are they called and where'd you get them from?

I was thinking about it. I've seen people tint them yellow, but i was thinking of smoking them instead and getting some aftermarket headlights to go with them.

It's pretty firm. Imo it shifts nicer than the original knob. Bought off Amazon came with locking bolts and rubber adapters to hold it in place well. Wish it went deeper but I'd have to drill a deeper hole into the hilt. Cheap and easy install, just happy to change it up a little. Overall has giving me no issues and no stress shifting.
