Welcome to the Cadillac V-Series Forums!

What did you do to your Blackwing today?

Is that still a thing?

It took me a few years but I finally completed the blackout look on my 23 bw. I had the ppf guy wrap that annoying piece of chrome on the side mirrors and put on blacked out badges, center caps and the smoked corner markers. Looks much better this way...

Mine is an early 2023 and they weren’t including the Blackwing badge on the cars at the time. When they sent me one a few months after I got it I never put it on. I prefer it this way, a little incognito.
 
Took my '25 Blackwing out to Los Angeles and back to drive Ca Rt 33, attend Good Vibes Breakfast club on Angeles Crest and just enjoy the car as it was meant to be driven. 4162 miles over 8 days, zero issues, and nearly 21 mpg average. A friend brought his new Z06 out and back also. Jesus and Jay Leno made appearances at GvBC along with a Mustang GTD just to keep things interesting. The ongoing wildfires near the Grand Canyon made for some unreal pictures...but I probably need new air filters now. 😬 12500 miles on the car since picking it up early January '25 with all the ups and downs in initial build quality (hopefully) finally sorted.

Some filters provided by Mother Earth. That's unique.
 
@chrishuy, love the Red, White and Blue photo shoot!
 
Well in Va it has been in the 90s, raining or both it seems for the past 6 weeks. But today is was breezy and mid 70s. So out came the pressure washer foam cannon and the BW and wifes truck got the spa treatment.

Then took the kids to lunch. Good day!

Wasn't necessarily today, but over the last couple of weeks I parted with my "Yellowwing" and picked up "Greenwing". Both 4BWs. My first was a great car I just fell in love with this color combo and wanted some different options - PDR mainly with a sunroof delete. So far I've only swapped the side markers, added some rear rock guards, window tint and had the car corrected, coated and had some PPF added. Probably won't do much more except drive it and enjoy it. My last one saw just shy of 20k over 2 years and it has by far been my favorite daily.

I'm up in the air whether or not I want to swap the badges with black ones. On the yellow it looks great, but I actually don't hate the chrome against that beautiful typhoon metalic.

Where did you get the rear rock guards? Any issues with installing them?
 
Took my 5BW in for the serial data gateway module update this morning. While there, I had them change the rear differential fluid. I've only got 4,785 miles on the odometer, but decided to be proactive and have it changed.
