Wow this is the type of quality I hope to be able to put into my E46, people will never realize the amount of effort, planning and time it takes to do something like this

What kind of paint are you painting on the underside of the car?

@OEMplusRESTO

3 ай бұрын

Thank you. Thats kind of you. Theres definitely is a lot of planning and work involved, so i appreciate the recognition. I use hammerite paint on the underside. There are probably better alternatives out there, but this has worked for me so far.

This must be the cleanest E46 I've ever seen. Nice work, man!

From start to finish, it's just a masterpiece. Enjoy every second of it while driving. You did what many men want but don't have chance to make it real... You deserve all the compliments bro, keep going 👍

Thank you. Im humbled. Having a lift definitely makes a big difference. Can only recommend.

You should place there drilled brake rotors, looks much better. I got some in my 330Ci'04. Nethertheless nice clean resto. How I like, stock+, nice job

Great effort and a great video!

You seem like a sound geezer, but just wanna thank you for everything you’ve shown you’re really helping everyone who’s picking these cars up in this decade and obviously they all need a bit of work. It’s a daunting task if you’re new to working on cars but you’ve really elucidated a lot of the work and it’s mega mega helpful!

I wanna do this level of restoration to my 330ci however step 1 is to have a ramp and the tools 😢 as someone who is self taught and in a family that doesnt already have tools, having to buy the tools along the way is a bummer. Hoping to do my manual swap this summer and aspire to complete my build to this standard :)

Tools and equipment are the biggest costs. And time. The car is cheap in comparison:) i hope you one day will find all of the above. In the meantime, park it in a garage or a carport, amd keep up om the oilchanges. Thank you for the nice words

I just saw that my comment didnt post on the video! :D Great video! I really liked the little "timelapse" of all the previous videos leading up to this now perfect car :) I would be scared to even park the car outside now with all the salt in the winter times here in germany :D Also if you ever want to use my mike sanders kit for a future video you can hit me up and ill send it to you !

Cleaning and painting old parts like wishbones and so on is just nonsense and waste of time and energy. From my own experience: if something like the engine mount piece is rusty, you wont overcome the rust with paiting....just put on grease/wax and it will stay brown and ugly but it wont rust further or very slow
