    Blackwings and Watches

    I don't collect watches, but have a couple. The most recent one was a bday gift from my wife last year that she noticed me eyeing while getting her a 30th anniversary ring. So I figured I would share -

    Does A Radar Detector Help Anymore?

    My Escort 360c MKII save my arse today. As I was approaching an intersection, my detector alerted showing side arrows. I made a turn to my next road and I got a fairly strong ka-band alert showing front arrow. He was roughly 2 miles out... an Evil Knievel bubblegum machine was hiding within some...

    Is this a decent price for this car?

    But we both have the color advantage - RIFT, you know, the fastest color out there. 😏 That alone adds like $10k + more to the overall value!

    Cargo organizer

    I recycled this one from my Audi. Works great and has a cooler in the middle. Folds up flat when not in use. The dealer threw it in when I bought my car.

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    Here was the color of mine at 849 miles, didn’t seem any different from the last 2 other LT4’s I had. I haven’t used Blackstone or any labs on any vehicle. Pls share yours when you receive it. Thanks for sharing the funnel info.

    CT5-V Has anyone had the TSB work done for the engine hesitation issue?

    Interesting, I have not felt it on my 22’ 5BW, but sometimes feel it on my 22’ GMC Sierra AT4 with 6.2L. I see it on the TSB list, so I will need to find time to take in. Thanks for sharing the link, forgot about this issue.

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    I installed the same ZL1 lift pads on my 5BW, nice product. Suggestion- I cleaned the set screws and thread holes on the pad with alcohol to remove any possible remaining mfg residues, then added some blue Loctite thread locker and tighten. Last check, they are still tight. I recently bought...

    Does A Radar Detector Help Anymore?

    Totally agree with both posts. I use my Escort 360C MKII & Waze plus staying alert anytime I decide to be above the speed limit. Has worked very well for me in the areas I drive. BTW @Sully, I didn't know you could get the "drone view" camera option on the 23's, I thought it stopped with the...

    OEM Carbon Fiber CF1 & CF2 installed on 22' 5BW

    Thanks. Writing up detailed post consumes what little time I’ve had left lately 😂 I’ve been wanting to do the OEM seats backs, but damn, those in are expensive. I’m hoping someone will purchase and install the TapOut CF seat backs as they are reasonable, look good, but I don’t want to be the...

    OEM Carbon Fiber CF1 & CF2 installed on 22' 5BW

    Thanks! Once I conquered the first skirt, the second one took a lot less time. They appear more intimidating to install than they really are, IMO. Having the curved body clip tool makes the bottom come off faster. Anderson seems to provide a less expensive alternative to OEM as they only...

    OEM Carbon Fiber CF1 & CF2 installed on 22' 5BW

    Unfortunately, no other sources for OEM deflectors. I agree, they are overpriced, but those small pieces are quite intricate.

    Second portion of pictures. I have more, but hopefully the pics posted help out.

    OEM Carbon Fiber CF1 & CF2 installed on 22' 5BW

    Hello everyone! **LONG POST AHEAD** First off, I would like to thank @Rob for hosting this great forum (y) It would have been a lot harder for me to complete the entire CF1 & CF2 installations. The carbon fiber packages sure look great on the car! *Proceed at your own risk with any...

    New Book...."Victory Driven" Cadillac V-series by Andrew Nussbaum

    Someone else posted about the same book a few days ago. I bought one this evening and it shows 3 left on Amazon. $110 and free shipping for Prime. Glad to hear it’s of good quality and should have mine in the next couple of days.

    Radar Detector

    I have an Escort 360C MKII with a blend mount and my GPS locks in within a few blocks. I have this same setup in my GMC truck. All normal for both of my setups and locks pretty fast on both.

    When Do You Change Your Oil?

    Same for me as @jbawden stated. My GMC truck can’t quite make year as it’s driven more, but the 5BW is annually as it’s rarely driven. Threads like this are so fun 🤗

    CT5-V Rear seat center seat belt

    @1Evil55 good point, I don’t have carbon seat backs. I have the Alcantara seat backs.
