Mansory Carbon Fiber Body kit set for Cadillac Escalade

MANSORY for the Cadillac Escalade Gen V — full carbon widebody on America's largest luxury SUV

The fifth-generation Escalade is the largest passenger luxury SUV that General Motors has ever signed off — 5,382 mm long in the standard wheelbase, 5,766 mm in ESV trim, body-on-frame construction, 6.2-litre LT1 V8 with 420 hp and 460 lb-ft (with the 3.0-litre Duramax inline-six diesel as the alternative). Mansory's response is the only widebody kit on the market that takes the Escalade's flat geometric body and amplifies it instead of trying to soften it: carbon fenders that add 35 mm of width per side, a vented carbon hood with a power dome, a redrawn front and rear in carbon, and a 24" forged wheel package sized to fill the wider arches. The kit is dimensioned for both the standard wheelbase and the ESV — ESV-specific extended side panels are supplied as separate SKUs.

There is no direct Mansory sister to the Escalade in our catalogue — it is the only American full-size luxury SUV in the Mansory programme. The closest cousins by donor profile are the Maybach GLS (the German full-size luxury SUV equivalent) and the Lamborghini Urus Venatus (the performance-supercar-SUV equivalent). Reference photography of every Mansory Escalade build sits on the dedicated Mansory Cadillac Escalade blog.

Body kit — what's in the Generation V set

Hand-laid dry carbon, autoclave-cured. Pieces ship raw weave or with custom paint at order time. Bench install runs to three to four shop days for the complete widebody set; the wide-body fender extensions are the most labour-intensive panels because the OEM Escalade fender line is body-on-frame and the carbon extensions have to align to the chassis underbody rather than just to the fender lip.

Front:

• Full carbon front bumper with integrated LED accents and enlarged air intakes
• Vented carbon hood with central power dome and ventilation cut-outs
• Front fender wide-body extensions, +35 mm per side, left and right

Sides:

• Two-piece illuminated side skirts with Mansory branding
• ESV-specific extended side panels (separate SKUs for ESV chassis)
• Rear fender wide-body extensions, +35 mm per side

Rear:

• Redrawn carbon rear bumper
• Carbon rear diffuser with quad exhaust integration
• Carbon roof spoiler with integrated third brake light

Wheels — 24" forged monoblock

The Escalade ships with 22" wheels from the factory; Mansory's standard wheel offering for the Gen V is a 24" forged monoblock design (a multi-spoke layout in two-tone or single-tone polish, ESV builds typically going for the darker single-tone). The 24" wheel and the +35 mm fender extensions are dimensioned together — the wider wheel is the visual reason for the wider fenders, and downsizing back to a 22" wheel inside the kitted fenders leaves the arch reading hollow. The full forged-wheel range sits in the Hodoor forged wheels collection and can be configured to the Escalade's six-lug pattern.

Engine — Mansory has not released a published power module

The factory 6.2 LT1 V8 stays at 420 hp / 460 lb-ft on the kitted truck. The 3.0 Duramax diesel (where specified) stays at 277 hp / 460 lb-ft. The Mansory programme does not currently publish a PowerBox for either engine — General Motors' V8 calibration on the LT1 is more conservative than its Corvette-spec equivalent, and the Mansory workshop's position is that lifting power on this chassis is a per-VIN custom commission rather than a catalogue PowerBox. The exhaust note changes meaningfully with the Mansory quad-tip configuration even without an engine tune; for owners who want a louder Escalade, the exhaust alone is a meaningful change.

Fitment — Generation V (2021+), both wheelbases

The kit is dimensioned for the fifth-generation Escalade (production from 2021) across both the standard wheelbase and the ESV long-wheelbase chassis. The ESV-specific extended side panels are supplied as separate SKUs and ship together with the rest of the set on an ESV order. The kit does not transfer to the previous-generation Escalade (Gen IV, 2015–2020) — different bumper geometry, different fender line, different roof. For Gen IV owners Mansory had an earlier programme that is no longer in active production; talk to us per VIN if you have a Gen IV donor and want a custom commission against it.

This is a US-domestic build (with three exceptions)

The geographic shipping map for the Escalade is unlike anything else in the Mansory catalogue. Roughly nine out of ten Escalade kits we ship leave for an address in the United States — California, Texas, Florida and the New York tri-state area — and the United States has no country-specific blog page on our site because the Escalade is a US-domestic product, sold through US Cadillac dealers, used by US owners, modified by US shops. We ship to the customer's nearest Mansory-certified facility on standard freight terms, which is the closest thing to a domestic delivery flow that Hodoor runs.

Outside the US the Escalade kit ships into three corridors only:

• Gulf grey-import. The Escalade sells in the GCC through grey-import channels rather than through factory Cadillac distribution; the donor is harder to find on the secondary market and the build comes through three or four specialist shops in the UAE and Saudi Arabia.
• CIS via Tsar. The Tsar programme covers Russia and the wider CIS for the small number of Escalades landing in Moscow and St Petersburg through grey-import channels.
• Cyprus and Bulgaria. A small but recurring lane through Cyprus and Bulgaria serves resident-owner Escalades parked on the eastern Mediterranean.

Anywhere else, the Escalade is a special-order build — talk to us before placing the order so we can confirm the delivery facility and the local exhaust certification (the Mansory quad-tip configuration changes the noise certification on some markets).

Ordering & lead time

The full carbon set ships in five to seven weeks from the workshop; the +35 mm wide-body fender extensions are the longest single SKU because of the chassis-line fitment. The 24" Mansory forged wheel set is a four to six week lead. Email [email protected] with your VIN, the wheelbase (standard or ESV), and your preferred US delivery facility (or, for grey-import builds, the destination port) and we will quote landed including paint, wheels and quad-exhaust in a single freight booking. New Mansory releases sit on the Hodoor Mansory blog.

FAQ

Will the kit fit my Gen IV Escalade (2015–2020)?
No. The Gen IV uses a different front bumper, fender line and roof. Mansory's Gen IV programme is no longer in active production; per-VIN custom commissions are accepted on the Gen IV chassis but they are quoted as one-off projects rather than against this catalogue page.

Standard wheelbase or ESV — does the kit work on both?
Yes. Front, hood, rear and roof pieces are common across both wheelbases. The ESV-specific extended side panels are supplied as separate SKUs and ship together with the rest of the set on an ESV order.

Does the kit fit the Escalade-V (the V-Series performance variant)?
Yes. The Escalade-V (6.2 supercharged V8, 682 hp) shares the Gen V body geometry with the standard Escalade — the Mansory carbon set fits with no modification. The V-Series wheels can be retained or swapped for the Mansory 24" forged set.

Will the wide-body fenders affect the OEM running boards or the deployable running boards?
The OEM deployable running boards (where specified) require re-calibration after the wide-body fender extensions are installed; the certified install facility handles this as part of the body work. Fixed running boards (on lower-trim Escalades) clear the wide-body extensions without modification.

Can the kit be installed without changing the wheels?
Technically yes, but the result reads hollow. The +35 mm fender extensions were designed against the 24" Mansory forged wheel package; downsizing back to the OEM 22" wheel inside the wider fenders leaves visible arch space. Most owners spec the wheels and the body work together.

What about the Escalade IQ (2024+ EV)?
The Escalade IQ is a wholly different platform — battery-electric, 200 kWh battery, different chassis and different body geometry. The Gen V kit does not transfer. Mansory has not yet announced an IQ-specific programme.
