I got the GH380 lettering from Korean Auto Imports. They don't list them in the catalog, but they will order the Opirus badging as a kit for you on request, or as individual pieces. I have competed the exterior re-badging project, and I have photos up at my CarSpace page. The car looks fantastic! I whole-heartedly recommend the Opirus grille and badging to make your Amanti look more distinctive and mysterious. Korean Auto Imports are very reliable and they go the extra mile for you.

Well, that is weird. The pictures do show up in Safari on my Mac, but not in Internet Explorer on a PC. I'm going to have to check some help files about posting photos on this board.
The link above will let you see my gallery on CarSpace, my re-badging photos are there.

I think I fixed it; the problem seems to be that the images that I had uploaded were too large, and so were not able to be loaded consistently to the web browser. I have replaced them with smaller filed and they seem to be working better now.

"GH" is Kia's model designation for the Opirus/Amanti series (Optima is MG, Sorento is BL, etc.). "380" refers to the engine size of 3.8 liters.

I am trying out the advice from the help file on the forum, hitting the "IMG" button, pasting in the address of the hosted photo, and then hitting the "IMG" button again. My other photos are sometimes showing up, sometimes not. Hope this works.
BTW, this photo shows the Korean-market Kia logo covering the original "KIA" in an oval badge on the steering wheel cover.
