    Marker Light Removal

    Funny I just did those today. Basically: 1. Turn wheel all the way so you can access. 2. Remove 4 screws in the front of the wheel well (requires a small torx bit, don't remember which size). You may need a shorter driver or ratchet with hex adapter for top one. 3. Pop out liner a bit. I would...

    2025 5BW updates

    Makes me more glad I dropped the CF on constraint and got the '22 when I did.

    The Blackwing Spotting Thread

    My experience is quite a bit different. My 5BW seems to get noticed quite a bit on the road. I have people wanting me to roll down my windows at stop lights, people telling me nice car all the time, etc. Not sure if all of them know its a BW, but some do mention its a BW I also took it to a...

    2025 5BW updates

    Yeah the side view of the 5BW is by far it's worst angle. I think this is because of the 19" wheels and that you can't see the vent on the 5BW from the straight on side like you can the 4BW. I think the front looks good with the wider fenders. The back isn't bad, but would have been better if...

    2022 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing Collector Series 6-Speed…..BAT

    The original 250 would probably have had more cache if production ended in 2024. However since its receiving a mid-cycle refresh and I assume will probably be produced for another 2 or 3 models years I don't see them having that much collector value. This will be especially true if performance...

    More Aggressive CT5-V Blackwing Carbon Front Splitter

    @Terrance Sig how does your carbon look with the OEM in person? I see you haver carbon side pieces which I assume are OEM. I heard the OEM carbon is more yellow than yours (or maybe its the other way around), I was wondering if its even noticeable since they aren't exactly side-by-side? I am...

    2025 5BW Honest Opinions

    Honestly I would have just kept the front as-is and updated the sides and rear end. I think if they could have updated side vents to be more like that famous render that gets posted occasionally it would have helped the looks of it a lot. I wish the rear end fenders flared a bit more like the...

    2025 5BW updates

    I'll be honest I am kind of surprised they did a 2025 and to give it its own styled front end is nice. That being said I don't really like it, maybe it looks better in person, but none of the changes give me the itch of upgrading. Kind of surprised they didn't up the power a little bit to give...

    GM Press Release: Introducing the 2025 Cadillac CT5-V and CT5-V Blackwing

    I'll be honest I wasn't even sure they would do one for 2025 and to get if its own styled front end is nice. That being said I don't really like it, maybe it looks better in person, but none of the changes give me the itch of upgrading. Kind of surprised they didn't up the power a little bit to...

    More Aggressive CT5-V Blackwing Carbon Front Splitter

    Mine arrived cracked. Looks like UPS set something heavy on the box and it smashed the box. So that should be fun dealing with. Also, mine does not have any PPF on it either.

    For the sake of resale value I hope this is a mistake

    Sure, my first car was a 1991 Sonoma. Rear wheel drive with almost no weight in the rear. So I know how to drive a rear wheel drive in the snow as well. However, would I ever want to again? Hell no. This probably explains why I have seen so few BWs in general where I live. Don't get me wrong I...

    For the sake of resale value I hope this is a mistake

    I still have only seen 2 5BW on the road my self and one of them was hundreds of miles away in another state. I have seen a handful of 4BW though.

    For the sake of resale value I hope this is a mistake

    Honestly when it comes to the general public the BW being rear wheel drive is probably a big turn off for the market that would normally be interested in buying Cadillacs, especially in cold weather states. All the competition are AWD to my knowledge. The only reason I bought my 5BW is because...
