    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

    Carbon Fiber Cometh

    @WONT TAP can you confirm the length of bolt used to bolt the wheel deflectors through the front splitter and to the bumper? The stock mounting bolts are missing from that position for non cf cars and a bolt for the front splitter that is 22mm total length is too short to work. Parts diagrams...

    Greetings from a New Owner

    They're doing 5k over sticker!? A year ago they wanted 2.5k over for 4s at least. Are they trying to tack inflationary costs onto ADM now??

    Used all existing fasteners. There are two bolts for the wheel deflectors that I'll need to source that will need to be longer than the others. Good luck getting the clips off the black stock pieces. They are a pita

    Carbon fiber PN database.

    I think you ordered the old number if it says it's sold out. You need to manually search for the new p/n (you're likely going to get an email in a few days saying the number you bought is discontinued. Use this link for what I bought. I also did not buy the deflectors and are not sure if they're...

    retrofitting CT5 display in CT4

    Alright bad news, I tried again tonight to get the ct5 panel to work in the ct4 and no luck. Disconnected the battery and installed the panel again. waited some more and reconnected the battery and same shit. I don't really want to start tearing apart the car more and replace more modules so I'm...

    Has anyone “fixed” the ugly plastic piece below the infotainment screen?

    Finally done and installed! I chose not to install the triangle trim pieces as I felt it was too much carbon.... Which means THEY'RE FOR SALE!! I have 2 sets of the triangles and looking for $125 for each pair. Not sure if I'm going to make more of the main bezel piece but I have my stock one to...

    What's the difference here?

    Someone did buy the one from savage and confirmed it doesn't fit. From what I recall, it apparently is intended to go over the stock Non blackwing lip spoiler (base model). It's in another thread on here. I begrudgingly (pricey) just ordered the one from tapout but it likely won't ship for a...

    Carbon fiber PN database.

    Yeah there are some annoying parts that had core charges that didn't make any sense. My second set of wheels had a $50 per wheel core charge which added $200 to the cost. I was also looking at a replacement trim piece for the dash that has since been corrected but originally was $30 but had a...

    Has anyone “fixed” the ugly plastic piece below the infotainment screen?

    👀 Had to redo the ct5 panel again which is frustrating. Cleared the ct4 and the trim pieces today. Going to polish tmw and then mount. Had 40mph wind gusts yesterday and decided that might not be ideal to spray clear coat outside 😂

    Correct, My plan is to not install the dive planes. I'm getting the wheel well deflectors from tapout but will stop there in the front of the car. The hassle of getting the bumper off, reinforcing it on the backside and cutting out the holes isn't worth it to me for the look.

    Has anyone “fixed” the ugly plastic piece below the infotainment screen?

    dead simple, the less experience the better! I've been at this for a month just for shits, giggles, and internet points! joking aside, its not too bad. However, the smaller and curvier the part, the more of a pain it will be and more likely to get messed up. for the mirrors, they'd be ok since...

    Has anyone “fixed” the ugly plastic piece below the infotainment screen?

    I can confirm that it will be in between the cost of a banana and one million pesos. Once I break out the 'ol trusty abacus I can get that dialed in a bit more 😂

    Has anyone “fixed” the ugly plastic piece below the infotainment screen?

    Needs clear coat still but mocked up and looks pretty good. This was the first panel so it's a bit rough. I ended up redoing the ct5 panel as it had some issues that I wasn't pleased with. Using a 2k catalyzed clear coat so im unfortunately waiting until all pieces are fully done to spray it all...

    retrofitting CT5 display in CT4

    nope, had some delays on the trim panels I was working on - ran out of resin - and got delayed a day and a half. I won't have time to try until next weekend now. sorry

    Has anyone “fixed” the ugly plastic piece below the infotainment screen?

    Still working on getting these really smooth and polished in my free time but here are some panels mocked up, just the triangle trim pieces, just the center bar, and both. Both might be too much carbon and look a bit tacky but I think either separate is a good improvement

    retrofitting CT5 display in CT4

    thanks for the deep dive. my fear is if it is firmware/coding locked we are SOL. global B is heralded for its encryption, I doubt me asking for root access nicely is going to open it up. I'm trying to think what could be done to force a hard reset and force the system to do a hard boot where it...
