PROJECT: KIA FORTE

Guess what just landed on our desk yesterday? The February March issue of Performance Auto & Sound 100th Anniversary Special Collector’s Edition! After slowly moving passed the cover we came across a cool KIA Forte Coupe project on page 112. The project covers an HSD Coilovers install. The coupe features a fresh set of KÖNIG Backbones and worked very well with the agressive stance provided by the HSD Coilovers.

Be sure to get your copy of this issue and read about the Project KIA Forte Coupe.
