For my last three builds I have always found a section to highlight as I went my build. As I am new here I do not see that nor do I want to post in the wrong arena. Heck there may not be any interest but I personally like to keep track and am excited to see where I am as opposed to where I was. Please if you know where to post, let me know.
Is there a section where as you mod you can list it ?

Agreed! The only thing I've found is the Burger Tuning device, which kind of kills me. Burger is located in Semi Valley California, but they cannot sell you their tuning device in California due to California regulations. And, unfortunately, it's not really a plug and play system but could be worth another 40 - 60 hp.

Glad you can find some humor as you are going through some of difficult times. I can relate as I went through some tough times caring for my mom.My wife years ago curbed a tire/tim of mine and since then has never driven any of my cars anymore. Regarding AIMBAN headrest was told it was procured so I’m happy about that; just sent my one smart key fob yesterday to RPMTRADE to have the PBC board tranferred to new style GV80 smart key fob- I’m looking forward to getting it back and seeing the look. Also re-ordered cf side view mirror caps as I I’m not leaving the damaged one on my car. Definitely family is always the most important - the Genesis board / forum will always be here waiting for you. I will miss your posts though - wish you all the best going forward .

Thank you for those kind words. What’s keeping me stressed free is working on these vehicles. What’s stressing me IS working on these vehicles lol. I’m still in limbo waiting for the CF caps to arrive. I also looked into having my mirrors wrapped in CF, but the shop said due to how it is rounded, it would have a seam in the back. Which means while I am driving it, I will always see that, ummmm nope. I was going to go all black in the rear, but upon really looking at it, I need to not only keep it chrome like, but also need to keep all that’s there, there. I’ve spent most of today sitting in doctors office and driving to doctors offices. I’m home for a couple of hours and then I have to go and interview home healthcare workers to try and at least offset some of my load.

It’s definitely a Catch-22 and I know exactly what you mean land how you feel when you say you are stress free and stressed all at once when it comes to your cars and their mods. I asked rpmtrade@gmail.com if he could get me carbon fiber side view mirror caps and he told me yes, so I have ordered them through him. I believe he will get them from the same factory that produced the CF steering wheel - from what he told me it’s a reputable factory that only does carbon fiber work in Korea, they do alot of CF work for the KIA Stinger. Have to say he’s been really great - so much so that he saved me some $130 in shipping charges; to ship my key fob was going to be $175 via Fed Ex and when I had let him know that because he asked me to tell him prior to shipping - he let me have use of his Fed Ex account and shipping was reduced to $45. So for me he will always be my go to when it comes to any items I need for my Genesis/ from Mobis/ AIMBAN, etc..… He has also saved me a ton of money when it comes to the items he has shipped to me in the past. I am sure you will be happy with all your purchases - enjoy them as we only live once. And best of luck with the health aides - trust your gut and be sure to visit/ stay on top of your parents. Enjoy the time as much as possible , I would give up my left arm to have one more day with both my parents. If you are up to it make voice recordings - Inwishbi had made more of my mom- the ones I do have of her singing and just speaking to me mean more to me than anything.

Oh wow I am sorry for your loss. Yes I take care of my parents and my wife’s parents. On a side note if possible can you contact him for me about possibly getting a set of carbon fiber caps also ? I also have a set coming but who knows what they will look like or if they will even arrive. I’ll send you my email in a DM if you do not mind.

Awesome that you take care of both set of parents - both are fortunate to have you and your wife. I don’t mind reading out to RPMTRADE for you and will let him know that you also wish to order a pair of CF side view mirror caps. I will ask him to provide you confirmation of same- no worries.

Audidad can you send me a pm, I just joined and don’t have the rights yet, thanks.
I thought it was just the case for your existing key fob. Did i miss a post where it's available?

I had the PCB board from the original smart key fob “transplanted” to the new smart key fob that is already available for GV60 here and will come with 2025 GV80. Had it done by contact in Korea - rpmtradekorea@gmail.com. I think the newer key fob is exactly what our vehicles should have. I am also going to mod my second key fob to the newer one - will have it transferee to black color style .

Can reach out to rpmtradekorea@gmail.com. I have been able to get tons of stuff through him for my GV80 that we cannot get here in the US - annoying but then he’s been great to deal with!
