They're one of the most effective front aero upgrades for track use, and they're designed to match the ARD front lip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAero over aesthetic.

ARD develops its parts the way race teams do: CFD simulation first, then track testing before release. ADRO's head of aerodynamics, Scott, comes from a Formula 1 development background and leads ARD's work. The G87 M2 ARD Aero Package is one of the first complete systems from ARD.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Quad Canards\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCanards are one of the most recognisable parts of motorsport aero. They're also often used badly. On many aftermarket kits they're mostly for looks, adding little front downforce. ARD's quad canards have a specific job: managing the vortices from the front splitter and steering air around the front wheels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow It Works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn a road car, the front wheels create a lot of the drag and turbulence. As they spin, they throw air up and out, disturbing the clean flow the splitter and undervanes rely on. The canards contain and redirect that disturbed air.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach canard sheds a vortex from its outer edge. With four canards, those vortices stack up and strengthen as they move back, forming a curtain of controlled air between the splitter endplates and the wheel arches. That keeps turbulent, high-pressure air from the wheels out of the underbody, so the undervanes work more efficiently.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAs part of the complete ARD Aero Package\u003c\/strong\u003e, the system generates 2555N (574 lbs) of downforce at 180 km\/h, a 1254% increase over the M2's stock 189N, with a gain of +2366N (532 lbs).\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMaterial\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll ARD parts are made in prepreg carbon fibre. Prepreg carbon comes with the resin already impregnated into the fibre in controlled conditions, so the resin is spread evenly through the whole part. That makes the part lighter and stiffer, without weak or resin-heavy patches that could delaminate under load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor canards, stiffness matters most. If a canard flexes under load, its angle changes, which changes the vortex and undoes the airflow control it was designed for. Prepreg keeps its shape under load, so the canard works the same on lap 20 as on lap one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVehicle Fitment\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2023+ BMW G87 M2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot sure it fits?
