    Is this a shipping block?!

    I'll double check but I didn't see anything in the trunk other than the license plate bracket...

    Is this a shipping block?!

    Anything else I should see if they didn't do when I go in to get them removed? I'd just do it myself but I lent my jack to a flakey friend who doesn't answer the phone...

    Is this a shipping block?!

    I just drove to pick my son up from daycare in the rain and the car starting squeaking over bumps something terrible. Once I deposited the child at home, I went back to glance into the wheel well and saw this in the front. I can't see the shocks in the back, but is this a shipping block?

    Sold My Lease to ALGO

    I didn't think so either but apparently ALGO was okay with it. We had to have a 3-way (call) with Genesis Financial so they could get the dealer buyout without tax but that seemed to be about it. Residual without buying was 25.5 and they gave me 37. Crazy times...

    Carbon fiber PN database.

    I googled the part number and the first website said they were selling it for $730. That's steep but honestly not as bad as I would have thought. In any event, I have no CF to destroy and I'm okay with that.

    Sold My Lease to ALGO

    Not sponsored post or anything, but since the BW came in this weekend I just sold my leased Genesis to ALGO, which among with Carvana, Vroom etc. is one of those online outfits that buys cars. I had to send some documents and pictures, sign some forms, and then a dude showed up at my house to...

    CT5-V What don't you like about your CT5-V Blackwing?

    Update now that I have the car. Even with my soft, Lilliputian lawyer's hands, I'm not finding the distance to the stalk to be that big of a deal. I'm still getting used to some of the ergonomics, and it doesn't help that I'm coming from a Genesis. IMHO, Hyundai really has some of the best...

    PSA: Setting Expectations - Condition of your paint may disappoint you, but a paint correction/ceramic coat and a good detailer will fix your problem.

    Good to know! If it wasn't going to the detailer anyway I'd grab a foam pad and a drop of compound right now and try it myself.

    Protecting my bumper?

    When faced with a steep enough driveway, no angle will change the laws of physics.

    PSA: Setting Expectations - Condition of your paint may disappoint you, but a paint correction/ceramic coat and a good detailer will fix your problem.

    As far as I know mine didn't sit outside very long. The paint does have some fine scratches but I would chalk it up to the dealer washing it, and I would polish them out if I wasn't going in for PPF and ceramic since the detailer will do it for me. As far as imperfections, there is one cloudy...

    Protecting my bumper?

    I bought the one I linked above. Going to sand down the rough part and spritz it with some gloss black paint, which should be a passable fix for my purposes, and hope those things work. I'm getting the car PPF'd in a couple weeks so I wanted it to be resolved before then

    Delivery Thread - Post Pictures Here!

    Lol, he was crawling around the car trying to turn the wheel and pressing buttons and was very excited about it. When I tried to take him out he got very upset. I was like "I feel you buddy"

    Delivery Thread - Post Pictures Here!

    It's here! They're not the greatest pictures and I know you've seen at least a couple of similarly spec'd Blackwings from other members here, but this one is mine! Thanks for the support, everyone!

    Protecting my bumper?

    Thanks! I really don't see it as a big deal. If it really bothered me I could just buy a new black piece, even though its ridiculously priced at like 180 bucks

    Protecting my bumper?

    I picked up my 4BW today, it's glorious and will post pics when I have the chance. My first order of business upon picking up the car was to scrape the bottom of the black bumper extensions on my parents' driveway, even though I was really being careful because I didn't know how low it was...
