A Week With The Triplets. M2, M4 GTS, and M3 30 Jahre

It's been a busy week at the Ground Control shop, and I figured I'd post some pictures for everyone to enjoy.


2016 F87 M2

Our first project was the M2. We installed our adjustable ride height kit, adjustable front camber/caster plates, and our prototype rear shock mounts(more info on the shocks mounts coming soon). This was a street car, so we went with a moderate drop, and -2° front camber.

F82 M4 GTS

Second on the list was the F82 M4 GTS. This car already comes with adjustable dampers and offset front upper mounts, however we added our camber/caster plates for more adjustment range. Depending on the ride height, you should be able to get from stock to about -4°. The stock coilovers also use a smaller diameter spring, so we custom built the plates to match.

Interior shot, take a look at that mileage.

F80 M3 30 Jahre Edition

Last but not least was the F80 M3 30 Jahre Edition. The cars original Macao Blue paint was wrapped with a clear matte vinyl. We installed our adjustable ride height kit, adjustable camber/caster plates, prototype rear shock mounts, as well as our prototype adjustable rear control arm set(more info to come). This system is designed to work with the factory adaptive dampers.

Ubers newest driver! Trevor out for a test drive with Donovan snapping a selfie.

Please enjoy the pictures guys and gals! We took more pictures than our Gopros and Iphones can handle so if you're looking for something specific, feel free to give me a holler!

I didn't see it on your site, unless I missed it, but how much for the adjustable ride height kit.
