That brings to mind the one chintzy aspect of the CT4. Sheet metal screws into the plastic rear bumper for the plate. I had to grit my teeth and hog out some big holes with a drill to install those square plastic nuts to get a little stand-off spacing and to give a solid place for the screws to...

LF4472 is right. This is what the parts look like (take-offs from my car I upgraded to CF)

I was surprised how many there are when I Googled for pics. This came up on www.copart.com and that particular one had 3800 miles. It's only bid to $250 so far. There are 10 CT5 BW and 7 CT4 BW listed. https://www.copart.com/vehicle-search-model/cadillac/ct5-v

When I hear "impact edition" I picture this in my mind:

In AZ you need those race car windshield tear-offs. My mother lived in Tucson and it took a day for my rental to pick up a stone chip.

Any Cadillac can park in the corral. Not everyone drove on the track.

Also at the Detroit GP, Cadillac Corral staging before the Cadillac "parade" laps. I'm in parking spot 4175. My phone was almost dead so my wife did the video. Hotel parking in Detroit from the room window. BWs are everywhere up there I guess. The black 5 didn't move in two days from what I...

No way! It will be November soon and you'll be ahead of the game.

I have a 4, but there have been posts here and his seem to be well received: More Aggressive CT5-V Blackwing Carbon Front Splitter https://exhibitionsofspeed.net/shop/ols/products/cadillac-ct5-v-blackwing-carbon-fiber-front-splitter

I think the 5 is the same as the four and you should have a pair of brake ducts you install if you want to race it. Also, you should get the "standard parts" if you had any dealer installed options, like the standard V floor mats if you got the premium ones, the painted mirror caps if you got...

Isn't this where the CT4 and CT5 are built: GM Confirms $175 Million Investment for Chevy Camaro Production in Michigan I wonder if that has any bearing on the future Cadillacs? The only thing that seems likely is the future Camaro is going to be all electric. There still seems to be discussion...

:cry: sucks doesn't it? My dent repair isn't perfect, but you have to know where it is and get the right light on it to see it. It just really annoys me I could have avoided the whole thing if I just realized how simple it was to remove that trunk lid bumper from the beginning :rolleyes:

Maybe I should get it as a set for my 4BW. The Shadow twins. If I got another, I'd probably like an auto since mine is manual. Adding carbon fiber to a 5BW would be a breeze compared to the work I did on the 4. The dive planes were a real learning experience.

The OEM spoiler nuts are nylon lock nuts. Integral washers if I recall. I reused all four of those, and added two with large fender washers with rubber washer underneath on the outer that the factory used that irritating plastic clip that won't release. You're right about the potential for...

I used nylon lock nuts and just snugged them down. If I recall, there wasn't enough length for rubber gaskets, fender washers AND lock washers. I trust the nylon lock nuts better anyway, even over Locktite, plus easier to use.

I got the video from your body guy You're lucky about the washer. I dropped mine into the corner and the magnet retriever I tried to use got stuck harder and caused bumps in the decklid that took a dent guy to fix. That's when I realized I could simply pop out the bumper and easily access...

Here are some slides from Spring Mountain regarding PTM PTM question Also, per my notes regarding traction control (TC) and stability control (SC), they said both are 100% for Wet, both reduced for Dry, about 50% for both for Sport, TC reduced and SC off for Race 1, and TC reduced more and SC...

The top Shadow Metallic is mine. Lastgas is the Blaze Orange. Saw yours and the other 5 too. Sorry we didn't meet up, but there's no way to tell who's driving what in that crowd.

I might go. I was at the MAG one a couple weeks ago with some of the other club guys.
