What did you do to your Blackwing today?

Which ones did you get? There are several ones for GM but nothing specific for CT5 or any Cadillac.

The original poster linked these so I bought the same: GMC & Chevy Seat Jackers – Front Seat Lift Kit

If for some reason they don’t fit I’ll let you know.

Hey all, first post here! I debated where to post this between the spotting thread and here but since I met the owner of the other Blackwing in the photo and he ended up being my instructor I'm posting it here.

Did my first ever, in any car, track day down at Dominion Raceway in VA. I was in the novice group and was very fortunate that my instructor was a fellow BW owner, he was great and was able to give me specific instruction for our vehicles. The car is absolutely insane and I was focused on just trying to survive lol so I dont have many photos but please enjoy the below.

Some FAQ's I got at the track that I'll repeat here. MT, no PP, Typhoon Metallic paint but with "XPEL stealth PPF" on top, track number 62 for the 6.2L displacement of the engine, 5BW is short for 5 Blackwing as I'd hazard most people here would guess .

My view... The touch car washes definitely swirl up paint. Now, PPF.. maybe less or no swirling, not sure. "Experts" typically say to avoid the touch less primarily because they use strong soaps that will degrade and remove ceramic coatings usually. I enjoy controlling the inputs, technique and washing the car at home so I don't use either but that's just me

Oh yeah I totally get it. XPEL comes with a 10yr warranty and they’ll replace sections if needs be. They straight up told me they all take their cars through auto car washes. Can’t recommend them enough.

I even went for their top tier which includes a ceramic impregnated PPF, and once a year I go back to get it re-coated (included in the cost).
