LOL. I have been spending too much time in the Blackwing forum!

Black V emblem on the side goes well with the black wheels. I have to ask what you did with the front spoiler and the rear diffuser. Is the rear painted or wrapped? I am guessing painted as it is a very good color match. I have never seen that small a front spoiler before. Where did you get it?

Drift does not have much metallic. The metallic it does have is blue. So it looks more blue in the sun than in the shade. I was torn between Drift and Deep Space. But my last 2 cars were dark gray so I wanted different. I had not seen Drift in person when I ordered so it was a bit of a gamble...

Correct. Same size as the MPSC2 tire option on the PP. The rears are GM spec 3R (which were the front tire size on the Camaro).

Obviously a lot of the trim pieces are carbon fiber wrapped along with the roof. It looks well done. I think the calipers are also wrapped or painted as the V logo would be black on factory red calipers.

I also have a Drift CT5. Please post pics with the black emblems. I was thinking the chrome looked fine but I am wondering if the black would look even better on a Drift car.

Year is assigned when the VIN is created. It cannot be changed later. Check the 10th digit in the VIN. S = 2025 and T = 2026

You should have a VIN if it has been built. That will tell you what year it is.

CT4 BW Spoiler removal directions

Probably. But I only have the one for a 5BW. I did not notice you had a 4BW. Hopefully access to the mounting point at the corners is better in the 4BW. It is impossible to access in the 5BW. You have to use special clips instead.

This install guide for the GM carbon fiber spoiler on a 5BW may be of some help.

Hard to tell from the pic, but it looks like it is a bolt that goes into a nut embedded in the spoiler. That sounds like a real pain to align with the existing holes compared to having the bolt in the spoiler that is secured with a nut. Plus drilling the new holes on the edges becomes trickier...

I ran Goodyear Supercar 3R tires on my 5BW. I figured if they were good enough for the ZL1 1LE, then they were good enough for the 5BW. They were super sticky. Much grippier than regular MPSC2 tires. Probably more similar to the MPSC2R tires. This was my first track day with the 5BW so I do...

Congrats on the new V. Drift is the best color available in 2025-26. The only consistency in GM logistics is its inconsistency. The dealership that I bought from gets lots of CT5-V and Blackwings. With a high degree of confidence they said I would be waiting 2-3 months from start of...

One thing I noticed about the blue calipers is that they are the only ones with white logo/letters. The white stands out more than the black.

You can also lock using the myCadillac app on the phone or watch. I assume that sends a signal over the 5G network. The app/watch will tell you when the locking (or unlocking) process is complete.

Wait and get exactly what you want. The last 3 cars I have ordered have been 6-12 month waits. Waiting sucks but years later when I have exactly what I wanted, I am glad I waited. Pass the marshmallow test!

Red and green are complimentary colors meaning they provide the strongest contrast. That is why it is a classic pairing (along with blue/orange and purple/yellow). I would go Typhoon with red calipers or Costal with blue calipers. In either case go with bronze wheels. I dislike black wheels...
