Welcome to the Cadillac V-Series Forums!

What did you do to your Blackwing today?

OCD Items for the oil exchange. Odometer at 485 ready for the 500 mile tick:

Supercar 0-40W
PF64 filter
Oil pan plug magnetic Goldplug
Blackstone Laboratories kit for the 6.2L. testing at 500, 1500, 4500
RaceRamps RR-XT-2 (Summit best deal then)

Rear diff lube Delco. yum.
Rear diff plug magnetic Goldplug AP22
Magnetic plugs for the Tremec when I get to it. Goldplug x2 NPT thread fill and drain. why not?

INSANE GOBS of OCD cleaning solutions for testing and sniffing (and shine)
Bilt Hamber, Koch Chemie, Labocosmetica, POSH. Gtechniq.
Foams, window cleaners, bug, tar, tire dressings. GOBS of detailers rags, cottons, microfibers, brushes, 3-brands of iron alkaloyds for wheels and smells.

Karcher 1700, Ryobi blower(s)

Heatshield(s) for CT5-V front, back, top (paid pending, patterns for Ultraview)

Full disclosure I'm old school Zaino car paint user. Lets just see how the Argent Silver looks with optical purity, in a minute. boom.

Need:
Water filter for spotless.
Foam canon - waiting on Harbor Freight restock
CR Spotless in the setup is a gamechanger
 
Is that still a thing?

It took me a few years but I finally completed the blackout look on my 23 bw. I had the ppf guy wrap that annoying piece of chrome on the side mirrors and put on blacked out badges, center caps and the smoked corner markers. Looks much better this way...

Mine is an early 2023 and they weren’t including the Blackwing badge on the cars at the time. When they sent me one a few months after I got it I never put it on. I prefer it this way, a little incognito.
 
Took my '25 Blackwing out to Los Angeles and back to drive Ca Rt 33, attend Good Vibes Breakfast club on Angeles Crest and just enjoy the car as it was meant to be driven. 4162 miles over 8 days, zero issues, and nearly 21 mpg average. A friend brought his new Z06 out and back also. Jesus and Jay Leno made appearances at GvBC along with a Mustang GTD just to keep things interesting. The ongoing wildfires near the Grand Canyon made for some unreal pictures...but I probably need new air filters now. 😬 12500 miles on the car since picking it up early January '25 with all the ups and downs in initial build quality (hopefully) finally sorted.

Some filters provided by Mother Earth. That's unique.
