    Where can I get black side markers?

    Turn the wheel all the way in to give yourself room to work on the inside of the fender well. (ie, If working on the px side, turn the whelel all the way to the LEFT.) (at least on the 5BW), starting from the bottom of the fender liner, remove 4 of the screws holding the fender liner in. The...

    Where can I get black side markers?

    As you can see in the photos I posted, the color temp is near exact.

    Where can I get black side markers?

    Just installed mine for the 5BW. I had the blackout film on the sidemarker lights before so it still looks the same when the light is off. But clearly, it looks different & better (IMHO) when the light is on.

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    I understand the car alerts you if the blinker is left on bc I accidentally a friend of mine did that.

    The Blackwing Spotting Thread

    Just saw my 5BW twin late this afternoon northbound on US1 just south of Sanford, NC. Even had almost the exact same plate as me but from TN. As far as I can tell, the only difference was their sunroof. (I don't have one.) Dunno if it was MT or auto, tho.

    Would you recommend this as a "family Corvette"?

    IMHO, the ONLY downside for this as a family vehicle is the lack of a spare tire. It's easily remedied by getting one of the spare tire kits from ModernSpare but it'll cut into your trunk space & then the ability to put a large stroller back there.

    5BW daily driver

    I kinda DD my '23. I travel ALOT for work. Picked her up in Albany, NY in Jan '23 & have since put 23k miles on her. (I also have a C8 that I got brand new in Sept '22 & have 24k on that.) Mostly highways & back country roads in the sandhills area of North Carolina with very little traffic. The...

    Spring Mountain Impressions

    My 'rents retired to LV from NY in 2001. I go there regularly to visit & I do not gamble (& neither do my 'rents). Someone's recommendation on a Circue show is spot on but best seats are sold well in advance. The Mob Museum, Atomic Museum & Neon Museum (at night) are all worth it as well. The...

    Cheap "Mod" Upper Trunk Liner

    Fits my MY23 5BW without any issues. As you can see fom the photo, the cut out for the trunk light lines up perfectly. Mind you, it doesn't come with any instructions so you have to figure out as you go how to install it. But if you're at all mechanically inclined, it's pretty straight forward...

    Cheap "Mod" Upper Trunk Liner

    Installed mine today. Oddly, only needed to use 2 of supplied fasteners. Only I and the ones that know will ever know it's there.

    Checking Fuel Level?

    Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but has anyone figured out how to check the fuel level withOUT having to turn on the engine? Pressing the Start button to turn the vehicle on doesn't turn on the screen to allow me to see the Fuel Gauge. I used to have the Cadillac App on my phone so I could...

    2025 5BW updates

    Am I the only one bothered by the split up hood? Why can't it be just one piece down to the top of the grill? Was hoping the refresh would fix that visual flaw. Once seen/noticed, it can't be unseen.
