        Hmm those look familiar.... hahaha. That setup's going to be awesome man. If you haven't installed them by the time I get back, I definitely work for beer hahaha.

            I'm pretty excited. Gotta track down someone who can help though, or find a good write-up on the install.

              First week in November. I'd ask our mutual e36 driving friend if he has time, he may be able to help. If not....do you have a bentley? Should be as simple as unbolt this, install this, tighten this.

                I do have the Bentley, and Mr.e36 isn't easy to get to help install things lol. I dunno if it's his schedule or what. I'll give the Bentley a once over and see what it looks like.

                  Hhaaa ain't that the truth. He is really busy though, so I'm honestly not surprised. The Bentley should show you all you need to do...the front I'd expect to be tricky as you'll have to swap hubs, brakes, and all. The rear should be easy. If they didn't ship with instructions, I'm sure somewhere here there are instructions or just call Cal if you get stuck.

                    Yeah, no instructions. But i'm going to look around for a how-to soon and hopefully find something a little more decisive than "look in the Bentley" lol. I wanted to do the brakes and coilovers today but were showing the house to 2 different people (moving soon hopefully) so I've been cleaning :(

                      Installed these last night, spent a good portion of the day on the phone with Mark at Ground-Control.... Amazing guy, really really helpful. Car is hopefully "driveable" until my wheels arrive and I can get everything buttoned up.... Just in time for winter.

                          Ya it looks like they did a nice job, and the powder coating adds a really nice touch.

                            Yeah the housings are really nice and everything I got from them is top notch. I'm really happy so far with Ground-Control. Good products and awesome customer service.

                            The housings, they did all the cutting welding and fabbing m3 endlink mounting points for $190, that's including the powdercoat too. And they shipped everything to me assembled.

                              I Heart UPS - Now with pics!

                              So, I installed these like three weeks ago, but I haven't really had the time or motivation to go take some halfway decent pics of the car post-drop...

                              Hopefully you guys enjoy the new look, and hopefully Mark at GC will chime in. These are raw and untouched, and now show me I want more drop.. Car looks good in person, but still a bit high in the pics.

                              1)


                              2)


                              3)


                              4)


                              5)


                              Enjoy!

                                That's really the way to go. $190's not bad at all especially with the powdercoating.
