    Badge removal/replacement

    That shit looks cool man. My brother in law has a 3D printer and a laser etcher. You just gave me the idea of making something one of a kind to replace the emblems with if possible. Good lookin out!

    CT5-V Ikon anti-theft

    I thought about getting one of those too. Again, it’s just deterrent as the thief could remove it, but any steps to make it harder for somebody to steal is a good idea. I do wonder if it’s overkill and I’m just being paranoid. Maybe I should ask the people that are following me around trying...

    CT5-V 2025 CT5 Blackwings - have your dealer check oil plug on the front of the engine (Service Bulletin attached)

    Glad the plug didn’t uncork on you beforehand! Did you get the dealership to acknowledge fault for the scratches at least? I’d be pretty unhappy if that happened. I saw a video posted of a guys PDR recording the tech at the dealership scraping the shit out of his CF splitter. I immediately...

    Picking up my BW as I write this!

    Dope! You’re a blessed man. I honestly don’t care if my wife drives my car. I just bought her a Hyundai Tucson Plug in Hybrid… so she should be good. 😉

    Badge removal/replacement

    Those do look good no doubt. Are they metal or plastic? I have a $300 credit with Caddy which would cover the OEM black emblems, but 404 would save me a few bucks.

    CT5-V 2025 CT5 Blackwings - have your dealer check oil plug on the front of the engine (Service Bulletin attached)

    This forum has been soooooo helpful as a new owner. I made sure they checked the plug when the car came in, and sure enough it wasn’t completely inset. V-net and Rob for the win!🏆🥇🙏🏽

    LF4 Engine Oil Temperatures and Type

    The manual says to check the oil at every fill up. Has anyone experienced burning through oil fast enough that this was necessary in the first 1500? I plan to get oil changed at 500, then again at 1500, and go standard from then on. Should I be carrying around a quart or two just to be safe in...

    Picking up my BW as I write this!

    Agreed. Just one of the various reasons that I personally went for the ‘25 rather than the ‘24.

    CT5-V Ikon anti-theft

    Word. The hope is that seeing it will let them know it will require more effort on their part than another. Combine that with the dash cam, the OBD block, and the alarm, and hopefully it’s enough deterrent to make em pass it up. I mean even the best alarm/tech is just deterrent. 🤷🏽‍♂️

    Did you do or are doing V academy

    Gonna be an easy sell then. It might make it a little harder to coordinate dates with her work schedule, but maybe not. They’re sending me available dates on Friday.

    CT5-V Ikon anti-theft

    That was my impression too. That said, my guess is I’m stuck with it. We’ll see. I mean shit, even if they take it back and give me credit to buy accessories I’d do it. That $300 and my $300 in points would buy me the blacked out badges and the bronze wheel caps. Dude! That’s a great f’n idea…...

    Did you do or are doing V academy

    most definitely. Did you take a guest? I’d take my wife for the extra $40 (that’s stupid cheap!) if she was able to go to the classes and sit in on the track ride. If they’re not allowed to do that however, she’d be bored as bored gets.

    Be kind, she just woke up like this. 🤣

    Thanks Rob. How do I “register” it on the site’s registration thread?

    Badge removal/replacement

    Those are very pretty. The good thing about you black car is that it goes with every color! I’m thinking all black for mine because the other colors just look off against the green.

    Badge removal/replacement

    I saw that. Like $300? Did you buy them, and if so are they metal or plastic?

    Be kind, she just woke up like this. 🤣

    Hey all, wasn’t gonna do it til I get er out of the PPF/Ceramic/Tint spot… but saw some posts of folks’ cars and thought what the hell, why not? So here’s a pic of my baby all undressed and dirty from transport without the wheels I’m having made for her. I’ll bump this thread next week when I...

    Pics of your Blackwing in regular parking spots

    Probably because the gold flakes kinda look like the car is dusty in pictures. I know in person that ish blings though. Can’t wait to see what my baby looks like when it gets outta the Auto Spa. I took er straight there from the dealership (after about 30 minutes driving to not do a cold...
