I concur with the front subframe bolt. The problem with pinch weld items is that they don't clear the carbon fibre in the front of the 4BW but do in the rear.

I got the same feel in both my ATS-V and the 4BW. It is not a feel I got in the C7Z06. I have always felt it was the EDiff fighting to keep both wheels with traction. In my case the rear is not breaking loose, it is just a bit of wander from the rear both right and left. It was a bit...

I know what the pads are for the C7Z06, the ATS-V and the 4BW. The front pads are the Z26-1405s in each case. I have no idea what pad the 5BW uses but some in here have suggested it is the Z26-1405. I would confirm that before ordering however.

I don't.

Yes, I bought one box which has 8 strips. I only used two of them. One under the center of the splitter and I cut one in half and used each half under the splitter scallop where it comes closer to the ground. My CF splitter has 5.5 inches of ground clearance in the center and 5 inches where...

Carbotech also makes their 1521 ceramic compound in this size. The tracings I was making were sent to the President of Carbotech that confirmed that their C7Z06/ATS-V pad would fit. I happened to have a set of Z26 pads for my ATS-V that I put on the 4BW. I used the Carbotechs on my Z06.

I can confirm that the Z26-1405 front pads and the Z26-1718 rear pads fit the 4BW just as they fit the ATS-V just as they fit the C7Z06 just as they fit the SS Camaro. I have no idea on the 5BW. They do not have that cutout for the brake pad sensor, so that has to be removed from the old pad...

I also had mine wrapped, but the scrapping fixed the bottom part of the PPF by removing it. I did add SlipLo protection that should keep that from getting any worse. But at some point I likely will replace the splitter. At a delivered price not far from $800 it is not too bad.

May be. I have an early Mar 22 build date car that somehow had both CF packages and was a car ordered by the dealer for stock. So I won the lottery somehow on getting the CF. BTW, I already am looking at a new front splitter as they are so low. Our cars could use the front end raise...

I got a screw near the sideway at 206 miles on mine. I was at Discount Tire and they couldn't get the TPC, so I got the regular 4S. Tire Rack did have the TPC version however. Here is the TPC sidewall Here is the non TPC sidewall

If you want Nomex go ahead and get proper racing shoes but they are expensive. And you will need nomex if you are running in any sanctioned road racing series, but if you just do an odd track day, wrestling shoes have the same construction but are not fire resistant and are about one third the...

I don't have the sticker yet, but did get the CF license plate frame with the word Blackwing on it that somebody had posted in another thread. I expect that will relegate the sticker to the toolbox when it does arrive.

The C7 model had a 12v cigar adapter end and a receptacle in the trunk, at least for my Z06 and it worked well. I am using a Norco 10 on by BW and hooking it up to the posts under the hood. My smaller 0.75a and 1.5a tenders would also work under the hood but not as well. But the Norco is...

Several of the GM Parts Websites say that the splitter old #84433235 has been replaced by new PN 85563054. Looks the same and about the same price. https://www.gmpartsdirect.com/oem-parts/gm-lower-deflector-replaces-84433235-85563054

I used the Z26-1718 and Z26-1405 pads. These are the same part numbers for the ATS-V and the C7Z06, both of which I have had and changed pads on. The Owners manual states that the brake pad sensor will show a % of use of the pads in the Maintenance section of the DIC. But it didn't in...

I have the CF side splitters and there is simply no room between the edge of the splitter and the pinch weld point up front. I ordered about 6 different of those pads with the split for the pinch weld with diameters of 2" to 3" and none would work up front. The 3" were too close to the side...

First thing I did with the ATS-V and the C7Z06 was install ceramic brake pads. Used both Carbotech (expensive) and Powerstop (cheap) and they work wonderfully well knocking out 90% of the pad dust. Ceramic coating the wheels inside and out when changing the pads handles the other 10%. You...

I use the Noco Genius 10 on my 4BW. I used the Corvette branded CTek on the C7Z but hanging a cord from the trunk was a lot more bother than hooking up the BW under the hood. It has worked well for me. I also have 0.75a and 1.5a tenders for my older stored cars and that is really not...

And when it is paint corrected (if it needs it) they will remove the CC and you can then do what you want.

Today I fixed my CF1 splitter scrapes. It has 5" of ground clearance at the two bend points towards the side of the car and 5.5" in the middle. But that won't clear with a tow on a hook at 248 miles on the clock. (Dead BCM) I just sanded the scraped portions and added these: SLiPLO...
