    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    Put the summer wheels and tires back on today, mainly because I managed to bend a wheel and it was shuddering at speed. Wheel Insurance actually covered a replacement and the dealer is going to swap it out when when the new wheel comes in. Took the time to clean and ceramic coat the calipers...

    CT5-V Finally: CT5-V Blackwing Reproduction Spoilers

    Sorry not trying to hijack this thread, I broke one of the stock retainer clips on the 4 and when I tried to reuse one of the good ones, I couldn't get the tapout wing to sit flish against the trunk. I pulled it off and switched to nuts to torque it down tight. It's the same clip that was posted...

    CT5-V Finally: CT5-V Blackwing Reproduction Spoilers

    Access was pretty bad for the ct4 as well. I used a ratcheting wrench to tighten the end nuts and then ended up dropping the wrench in the trunk panel. Had to accelerate in reverse and slam on the brakes to get it to shift around until I could fish it out. I'd suggest tying a string to any tools...

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    Quickly sprayed the blackwing badge and mounted it as well. I'm liking the all black badge, nice and subtle.

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    Today I got the tapout spoiler and wheel deflectors installed. I honestly like the somewhat subtle look of cf1 without the dive planes, which is a good thing since I'd have to swap bumpers to make it happen haha. Spoiler was a bit of a pain thanks to adhesive and clips sbut it's on. I'll likely...

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    Which quickjack frame do you have? I've got a regular 5000 series and always struggled to get my ats in the air. Haven't done an oil change myself yet or needed it in the air to see if I could reach jack points

    Update. The screws and clips I ordered work to mount the wheel deflectors. I have 4 extra pairs of anyone needs them, just pm me. Probably be the $6 or 7 it costs to ship. I also have a pack of 25 of the screws if anyone needs a spare one or 2.

    Carbon fiber PN database.

    These are the clips. Same as what holds the splitter on and various other things of the bumper. That outer molding should be the same, only thing I could think of is if they moved the parking sensors location around a bit...

    Front and Rear Parking Sensor Retrofit

    Has anyone gotten this completed yet? I was supposed to have it done tmw but I asked my dealer to confirm the parts were in stock first and now we are doing it next week instead. They were confident that the parts would be received this week.

    Carbon fiber PN database.

    unfortunately I found some diagrams that are going to confirm that the dive planes will require a new front bumper - you can see the cf bumper has all the mounting clips present on the inside vs the non cf one that is smooth. likely a plastic piece that is plastic welded to the bumper at the...

    Carbon fiber PN database.

    good call out. I did not jack my car up when doing the front lip so I only saw those from the sides and assumed both were there (used that savagegeese vid to confirm how the factory lip was mounted). I may have to order those parts in then. were you able to peer up in the holes to see if there...

    Carbon fiber PN database.

    looks awesome! I've got fedex tracking for what I assume are the deflectors. have not gotten a tracking for my spoiler that I ordered last week..... hopefully they didn't sell you my order lol. I posted in another thread, but I think to install those wheel deflectors you're going to need extra...

    Rear Park Sendor Retrofit

    thank you so much for that! finally got the recall notice on cadillac owner site. booked service at my dealer for a week and a half from now. hopefully they are able to get the parts in and don't cancel on me! it was infuriating not having these sensors since taking delivery at the end of June!

    Carbon Fiber Cometh

    Front splitter won't need anything additional, all the screws and clips will be reused from the removal of the black splitters. I went through that a bit in the cf p/n thread. For the wheel deflectors I think it'll be the same m4.2 screws but cannot confirm. I ordered a pack of 10 of the speed...

    Carbon Fiber Cometh

    I appreciate it, thanks. I fly out for a business trip on saturday right before fedex says things will be delivered. I wanted to try and get things ordered before I left so I had a nice surprise to come home to. I think the screws I posted and used to secure the splitter are correct, but non cf...

    Carbon Fiber Cometh

    @WONT TAP any chance you could measure that bolt? I see my spoiler and deflectors are being shipped out early to me! I'd love to get the right hardware ordered ASAP!

    Anyone get their Blackwing badge yet? And are you putting it on?

    I got a call last week that there was good news! I should expect a badge in 1-2 months 😂. I'm more annoyed about my continued lack of parking sensors than the lack of badge at this point. I may change the text to "Lackwing" if I get it before parking sensors
