Morning:
1) Not sure when the build tool goes live. Orders can be placed through dealers though.
2) This is an absolute personal decision on whether to order spec or not. Know that dealers are BARELY getting allocations, and certain "spec" items may be under constraint (I.e. carbon packages...
This is a very important point. there are small air deflectors on the bottom of the carbon splitter for the 5 with CCB that I had to order in order to piecemeal it together. There is another thread at the part numbers -- we believe they are important if you have the CCB.
Very true.... although I typically check the forum at least every other day just to see what's new.
Activity early on was robust, but it feels like:
1) You can search for the topics you need, hence, not starting a new thread
2) Everyone who wanted a Blackwing got one, and interest may be...
Carbon Ceramic Brakes.... I have them, and it's my favorite upgrade due to NO BRAKE DUST. My bronze wheels stay fresh for weeks on end. If I had black wheels, the CCB might not be worth it.
Though I don't have black, I also piece-meal'd the OEM spoiler and splitter assembly after the fact...
Great write-up!
Agree with all your points, especially the “didn’t like the looks, at first”.
I traded in my fully loaded V3 for it, and felt like a step down in terms of looks. But the interior was a step up in terms of usability! Physical buttons, seats with massage and ventilation...
Forgot to post the pics.
Also, I’ve noticed that where the bottom would scrape on a few driveways, it’s completely stopped doing that.
Not sure if this slightly altered the angle, or o just scraped a few mm’s off of it. 🤣
Makes sense. That's exactly what I want as well. Likely will never track it, but I want it set up the same as it would from factory. I'm 99% sure this is new territory for my dealer and they don't know about it.
Thank you for this, @Ergoc5 .
For clarification: when you got the CF lip/aero, did you have to order part #19 separately, or did it come with the kit?
I did the same as you (ordered it piecemeal after the fact) and dealer installed it. I'll check under the car to see if I have #18 or #19...
