Fitting and care

Pre-Preg Gloss Carbon Fiber | OEM-Fit Replacement

Refine the face of your CT5-V Blackwing with a superior material upgrade. This Upper Grille Trim is precision-engineered from pre-preg (dry) carbon fiber and autoclave-cured for maximum rigidity, ultra-light weight, and a flawless weave finish. Each component is CAD-modeled directly from OEM data to ensure perfect fitment, alignment, and seamless integration with the factory front grille and hood line.

OEM-Matched Fitment: Direct replacement for OEM GM 42896560 upper grille trim—precise geometry ensures proper alignment with the Blackwing front fascia.

No-Compromise Mounting: Uses original factory attachment points, clips, and alignment tabs for a perfect fit—no modification required.

Direct Replacement: Remove factory plastic trim and install carbon-fiber trim using OEM hardware and clip locations.

Professional Installation Recommended: Experienced body-shop or carbon-fiber specialist ensures perfect alignment and avoids clip damage.

Pre-Fit Check: Test alignment prior to full fastening; ensure even gaps and flush fitment across grille and hood lines.
