I actually had the exact same experience. I though they were absolutely wrecked but what I'm actually looking at is the wrecked ppf. I think it would look a lot better if I pulled it off, but I'm going to try and maybe cut it back a bit and try Seth's tape fix

This is a fantastic idea! Edit: Which tape did you use? Just black electrical tape?

Awesome and informative post, thank you. OP, I scuffed up mine as well and agonized over it. I decided to just leave them alone because I figured it would inevitably happen again, and lo and behold it has, several times. If I were to do something about it, I would probably take them off, sand...

Nice.

You callin' me a jive turkey???

I got mine there and the building is actually pretty cool.

Wow, they're killing Electric Blue (i.e. the best color)??? Though at least now it looks like they're offering a real bright red. I wonder if I had chosen that if it was an option at the time.

Lol no problem, happy to help. I love electric blue

My profile picture (or any stock photo of the car) can show you the before, but here's the after. I think it's 45 in the front and 20 in the back, since the baby rides back there.

I hate when that happens!

Did the Spring Mountain thing this past weekend and it was awesome. Didn't set the track on fire (I think my best time was a 1:26 or something) but had a great time and met some cool Blackwing folks. Definitely gave me the bug for wanting to take my car to the track. When I hopped in the car to...

Excellent bit of trivia right there. I remembered that about the tires on the GXP, but not the other two

This is the correct answer. In my experience, the only ventilated seats I ever experienced which I felt were actually good were in a Ford Mustang I rented once. I've experienced vented seats in my 4BW, my wife's old Kia, my boss's Audi and a couple others and they were all lackluster.

Who leaked my plans??

Yeah, I guess I could call it that. It just sounds like... ticking, in tune with the engine when going lower speeds. At highway speeds, it either stops doing it or I can't hear it.

Tbh I can't really hear anything. Mine sounds like a fast ticking, which ticks faster with the engine speed, but then goes away temporarily when I put in the throttle and the revs fall.

Yes I have this same sound and I find it extremely annoying. Note that I didn't have it when I got the car, but it was also the middle of summer, so temperature might have something to do with it. I've meant to complain to a service department about this and see if there's anything they can do...

I think the Blackwings, along with the regular CT4's and CT5's, are going to run their 4-ish year cycle and be gone, which is pretty much what everyone expected from the start.

Will echo some other comments here, have a rear facing seat in the back of a 4BW (Chicco, excellent brand), and it works just fine. The 5 has acres of space in comparison. As for seats themselves, we had a Graco ClickConnect with a couple of bases for the infant seat and they were great. Really...
