So are you saying, remove the existing spoiler, and yours will fit in the current holes put in the deck lid by GM? That would be excellent.

Do you have any updated guess on timing and more importantly, price?? I'm interested.

Exactly. This is a direct replacement.

I was at the shop checking out the progress last week. We are projecting having the first one fully done end of this month, and on a car by Valentine’s Day. Pricing should be WAY under the OEM piece, even with clear coating. Shipping is the only factor that’s still an unknown, but will get worked out soon.

Got it!

Stupid question, but these are carbon fiber with a clear coat, correct?

One of these with a factory style front lip and I would be set!

Yes sir, you are correct.

Front splitter should be moving into production here within the next couple months

I only want a rear spoiler and I am willing to wait for production of the aftermarket carbon fiber parts to catch up with demand. Until then......I just went and had some of my black plastic wrapped with a carbon fiber to see how it looks on the cheap. I'm happy with the results and it cost me $800 for the front spoiler, rear spoiler, side rockers , rear air diffuser (not complete part due to the many angles) and a small piece on the trunk. If any piece gets scratched, I won't cry like I would over a real CF part. I believe Cadillac wants approx. $3500 for the rear spoiler alone.
Here are my 2 Caddy's ......."Beauty and the Beast".

What material did you use for the wrap of your spoiler and rocker. I think that is a great idea if it continues to look good. Did you have it professionally installed by a PPF installer?

@Terrance Sig .......before you ship those spoilers, can you show a few close ups of the finished product and maybe a pic or two on a BW?

I'm pretty sure its a 3M wrap. Installed by my PPF guy. There is only one center line cut and he lined up the carbon fiber perfectly. Alot cheaper and looks like the real deal.

No sir. I have learned that painting parts gloss black takes some skill to buff and polish correctly. Last thing I want is to deal with complaints about micro scratches and trying to fix stuff from a distance. It will be much easier for people to have their paint needs met by someone local.

Clear coat will be done in house. Those parts will have a higher cost due to the time and materials, but will be cherry. Here are some of my other hood vents that come out after clear coat and polish.

I got you on brother!

No drilling needed brother. V’s all have the holes pre-drilled under the OEM spoiler.

How much for the hood vent. Looks amazing

Gents,

The wait is over. Production on the Blackwing OEM reproduction spoilers is ready and pricing finalized. I think you will all be pleased.

Carbon Fiber W/ OEM V Weave (polished & clear coated) - $1575
Carbon Fiber with gel coat (Ready for paint or clear) $1275

Either option will have a $65 flat rate shipping, which is still less than 50% the cost of the OEM unit! Currently I have priority to produce these so I need to get carbon fiber ordered and ready to build. Please DM with your email and what style of spoiler you want. I will send you an invoice from PayPal. These will include installation hardware and have an option to install with or without nuts/bolts.

A $500 deposit will be needed to secure yours, and they will be built in the order that I received your deposit. Every order submitted WILL BE BUILT. My goal is to submit for the builds by the end of this month, and I will give everyone a timeline. I would intend to have these on your cars by the end of April, if not sooner. Final payment reminders will be sent as your spoiler nears completion. Then you will receive UPS tracking information to know it is on the way.

If you are planning to sell your car or not sure if you want one please understand that I am ordering materials for you. I understand life happens, but If you back out I will refund your deposit less a 10% restocking fee. I want to build these as quickly and efficiently as possible, so you can contact me anytime with questions.

We should be seeing some initial install photos from the first few that signed up. Hoping to start shipping a few next week, but getting boxes ordered will take a couple days.
