heard that the engine recalls mostly affects US built rather than both korean and american manufactured Kias. is that true?

Can anyone explain the difference(s) between the bumper for a USA built Optima vs the Korea built variant. I know the Korean version has the tow hook hole but I need to know if the mounting points are all the same. I am looking for a prepainted front bumper for my 2014 Optima EX yet all I find...

To all K5 members, I tried to post a thread regarding the new K5 you have seem to be really be interested about so I decided to take give you a bit of insight regarding the car. I received the car about two weeks ago. Having driven the previous K5 (Optima) there is a huge difference...

So I'm in Korea again and I'm seeing the new 2014(I believe this is the upgraded year) and there aren't that many driving around just yet but I just want to say I think the new front bumper just doesn't look good. Seeing pictures of it I thought it'd be a pretty cool update to the k5 but it...
