Whats up guys?
Just want to introduce myself and my ride here at Florida German.
My name is Alex, I am 20 years old and live in beautiful Miami. I run a technology solutions company and next to my work, the car is my passion. I am an active member at E46Fanatics.com and hope to become one here as well.
I own a 2004 BMW M3 Coupe, Ive been slowly modifying it for the past 2 years +. It has the SMG II transmission. It is SilverGray Metallic, and has Imola red leather. I really go for the DTM look with my mods. I think it suits the color and the car. The front lip spoiler is ACS and the rear diffusor is also. The current wheels are 18" AC Schnitzer Type III. However, there are 19's on order and I should be receiving them within two weeks. *BTW some of these pictures are older, before I dropped the car...so forgive thewheel gap.*

As for performance, I have the K&N 63i intake, Active Autowerke software and custom tune, De-catt, headers and strait-flow mid pipes. The rear exhaust is by Active Autowerke as well. Performance is excellent, sound is to die for...

Current suspension setup is just H&R Sport springs with the stock shocks. As soon as my new wheels arrive, the whole suspension is being replaced by Ground Control Coilovers.

I do A LOT of custom work. I love doing mods that no one else has.
My first really different mod were the red angel eyes.

Some people say they are cheesy/r!cerish....w/e I love them, and they complement the red interior.
My next crazy mod was also to the headlights...

Most people dont notice it...untill I get behind them!

I also built my system by myself, and am in the process of renovating it because it will also need to house my next mod....

All the mods I have done are not specified. There are hundreds of little things here and there, I couldent possibly write them all up. I will be posting pictures soon of my recently added CF interior, and of course when my wheels arrive.
Let me know what you think. :cheers:
I hope we can have a meet or something and have a bunch of the So Fl. People get together.
Cheers!
