Product Overview

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.

Designed for owners who demand OEM precision with motorsport-grade finish, this trim piece adds a distinctive high-gloss carbon accent that elevates both performance aesthetics and vehicle value.


Key Features

  • True Pre-Preg Carbon Fiber Construction: Manufactured using aerospace-grade pre-impregnated 3K 2×2 twill carbon fiber, autoclave-cured for strength and lightness.

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

  • Show-Grade Gloss Finish: Deep, hand-polished UV-protected clearcoat enhances carbon depth and resists yellowing or hazing.

  • Weight Savings: Substantial reduction compared to OEM ABS/plastic, improving overall balance and performance aesthetics.

  • Aero-Neutral Design: Retains factory air management and grille-to-hood transition geometry.

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