Cadillac V-Series And Blackwing Sedans Offer Optional Black Mirror Caps

The Cadillac V-Series and Cadillac Blackwing sedans are very attractive vehicles, mixing a healthy dose of aggression and sportiness with the usual Caddy class and shine. Of course, customers also have a wide range of customization options for the sedans, including optional black mirror caps.

Replacing the body-colored sideview mirror caps that are equipped as standard, the black mirror caps are a subtle and effective optional styling upgrade that can make the Cadillac V-Series or Blackwing sedan in question stand out just that much more.

Black mirror caps are available on Cadillac CT4-V, CT4-V Blackwing, CT5-V, and CT5-V Blackwing models. The feature is officially called Black mirror caps, and is tagged with RPO code 5JS. The feature is available as an LPO-level option, which means they are installed by the dealer, rather than at the factory when the vehicle is initially produced.

In terms of availability, the Black mirror caps for the Cadillac V-Series and Blackwing sedans are not offered in in conjunction with Black Raven exterior paint (paint code GBA), for obvious reasons. For non-Blackwing V-Series models, the  Black mirror caps are included with the Onyx Package, tagged with RPO code PDB, and also offered as an LPO-level item.

For Cadillac CT4-V and CT4-V Blackwing models, the sideview mirrors include heating, power-adjustability, a manual-folding feature, and driver-side auto dimming, with integrated turn signal indicators. For Cadillac CT5-V models, the outside mirrors include heating, power-adjustability, a manual-folding feature, and driver-side auto dimming, also with integrated turn signal indicators. A power-folding feature is included as standard on CT5-V Blackwing models, and offered as optional on Cadillac CT5-V.

To note, each of the Cadillac sedans runs on the GM Alpha 2 platform, with production taking place at the GM Lansing Grand River production facility located in Michigan.

  2. “Micro-Fiber”?? 😂😂😂

    I think you mean Carbon-Fiber. Micro-Fiber is a type of Polyester fabric.

    1. That’s what I meant, Carbon-Fiber. Was still sleepy when I typed this. My bad.

      1. Why would they offer it in carbon fiber? It’s a Cadillac not a Ferrari or Bugatti they are cheap for a reason.

          2. You’re right Megeebee. Andy is trippin’.

        2. There was no reason to reply and given a benefit of a doubt that I meant carbon fiber, Andy. You would had known that and no one is that dense mentally and would not bother to respond but you.

          1. You mean how megeebee had to correct you because of another foolish statement made by you?

            1. Only a basement dweller like yourself thinks he’s smarter than anyone but don’t have anything better to contribute. As always, you are reaching but nice try though.

              1. Says the guy who self fornicates in his parents attic as he writes this. As I said before megeebee had to correct you because you said another idiotic thing as usual.

                1. It is so sad that a human being or lack thereof like yourself have to retort to juvenile behavior on these forums that is noneffective who always self thumb-up his own comments. I find it funny you are reaching and keep trying to say the same thing over again and copy of what someone said to you in a defensive manner. If it helps you to become a better prick in day to day life, more power to you.

                  1. Wait a second did you not write something about me supposedly being in my parents basement in the first place? It’s funny how people cry fowl when someone says something back to then. As far as upvotes go I don’t care about up or down votes I don’t need others to tell me good job so I feel good about myself. I didn’t realize your self esteem was so low you need complete strangers to agree with you.

                    1. How can you stand yourself whom behave like this on a day-to-day basis? Hey Pinocchio, it is O.K. to start taking your meds again alongside with your QAnon buddies who suffer from mental illness.

                      You wasted all of your time replying to people who have better and productive things to do and worry about. Again, it just goes to show what type of a person you are in life. We all on here laughing at you while drinking your salty tears while you cry and weep.

                  2. Nice one start taking your meds again that’s almost as good as the overused parents basement joke. I can stand myself just fine I don’t make ridiculous statements on here daily that make myself look like a fool. And yup I’m wasting all my time replying to someone who supposedly has all these better things to do with there time but yet continues to respond on here. I always knew you were douche but geez this just confirms it. That’s interesting a trashy trump supporter brings up Qanon you must of got tired from getting dogged out on here about your right wing nonsense. Nobody is laughing with you I’m sorry then only thing people are laughing at is you thinking micro fiber should go on mirrors, maybe that’s how they do it in the trailer park but nowhere else does that.

                    1. All that tired garbage you tried to turn around from my response is remotely false and don’t represent anything about me. It is obvious, you don’t know anything about me and you are talking about yourself. As usual, you are a damn fool man.

                      Reply
                    2. The fool who thinks micro fiber should be used on mirrors lmao. God you are dumb. Let’s see what foolish thing you will say on the next article. Nothing is false about you being a right wing trump supporter. You have spewed that right wing filth plenty of times on here.

  3. Wow major option, lol. This site will report on anything.

    Reply
    1. Yes, it will give the professional thumb-down clickers a good opportunity to do more down-clicks.

      Reply
      1. People can downvote whatever they want. Why would you have an issue with that? You need people to agree with you to make yourself feel better?

        Reply
        1. Get a grip Andy. I have no problem with that. In fact I find it amusing how many dedicated down-voting pessimists congregate here.

          Reply
          1. I find it amusing how downvotes bother so many people on here. People always say they don’t care but then make statements about it.

            Reply
  4. More like a downgrade. For years black plastic on the mirrors and door handles and window surrounds meant it was the cheapest base model. While I don’t mind some contrasting black trim here and there such as the grille or the wheel pockets it just looks downright cheap on too much of the exterior, especially a Cadillac!

    1. Exactly!
