There are a lot of famous aftermarket shops out here that have developed a sixth sense when it comes to successfully customizing a BMW product, and one of those tuners is no other than Alpha-N Performance.

We have heard before about the gorgeous and exquisite tuning programs put together by the aftermarket specialists from Alpha-N Performance, especially on the hot baby-M brother.

The tuner`s kit involves the GTS aero kit, with lots of standout carbon fiber parts, up-to-date mechanics and the M4`s engine under the hood. Unfortunately for the powertrain, we don’t have the official numbers yet.

At the exterior, the BMW M2 GTS is standing out from the crowd with an impressive carbon fiber aero package, highlighted by the M4`s GTS carbon fiber bonnet, custom-built front spoiler, as well as carbon fiber roof panel and mirror caps. Let`s also not forget the rear diffuser with the same carbon infusion, along with a GTS-like rear wing for improved aerodynamics.

The overall new look is also complemented with the 20-inch BMW M Competition alloy wheels and the BMW M Performance black kidney grilles and side skirts, also seen on the BMW M4 GTS.

Besides the gorgeous carbon aero kit, the model has also received fine mechanics, like the Ohlins Road & Track adjustable coilover suspension which lowers the car`s ride height for increased stance, along with the M4 GTS ceramic brake discs.

As for performance under the hood, as aforementioned, we have reasons to believe that the M2 GTS is equipped with the M4`s high-performance engine, which is no other than the 3.0-liter BMW TwinPower Turbo inline six-cylinder, which now would develop a pure 450 horsepower.

Evolve Automotive Fits M2 Coupe with GTS Kit

Ever since unveiling on the market last year, the 2016 BMW M2 Coupe has become the most hunted-down BMW model in the tuning industry, the baby-M brother receiving hundreds of outstanding aftermarket programs.

The model is already fitted with M Performance Parts, which makes it even more outstanding and appreciated, but its well-proportioned body styling also allows for further customizations, which sometimes might turn it into something unrecognizable.

It is also the case of this BMW M2 Coupe which has recently received the outstanding and extremely wide GTS body kit, which is borrowed from its older sibling, the BMW M4.

The resemblance with the BMW M4 might be quite striking if not strange, the new kit making the M2 Coupe a far-fetched. Even so, I personally love the way it turned out, making it more aggressive and standout.

In the engine department, the BMW M2 Coupe already looks menacing with the 3.0-liter TwinPower Turbo inline six-cylinder engine, with 3470 horsepower and 450 Nm of torque. But with the new ECU remapping from Evolve Automotive, the model is now developing 400 horsepower.

Besides the small power boost, the model looks fabulous with the new GTS kit, with the body parts provided by CarbonFiber Dynamics, another important tuner.

The most important parts refer to the front bumper housing a large front splitter, providing more downforce and increasing the car`s air flow, GTS adjustable rear wing, carbon fiber rear diffuser insert on the bumper, carbon fiber hood and roof, Eventuri carbon fiber engine cover, orange Kevlar intake system, as well as a bespoke exhaust system. The overall design is complemented with the new alloy wheels.
