I love that you still do these SUPER simple ones. Something for everyone. Those wheel spacers made a big difference?

I feel like a slightly higher budget possibly from 500-1000 will be relatable to a lot of people and would love to see that.

Metal polish works good for cleaning up the exhaust. I also think a 300-500$ budget works best for simple transformations! Keep up the great content bro!!!

I’m glad you’re finally getting the recognition you deserve! been following since 15k and can’t wait to see you grow your channel and your content more. Much love brotha!

Great content. The tiny budget definitely held you back on this one. I'd like to see more $1k builds.

i'd recommend getting some clay bars. they are cheap and they are great at removing contaminants, like adhesives, brake dust iron, and mold. also a good iron remover spray would help a lot. Another tip for restoring the headlights, use your buffer for the compound. It'll save you time and elbow grease, as well as yeild a better result.

I recently bought a 2002 Bugeye, so I'm really looking forward to this Impreza series! I hope you plan to do more with this car, lowering it, adding like a small spoiler etc. Pretty cool!

loved the video! Glad to see n/a Impreza's get worked on.

Love the videos! One suggestion, instead of random car facts, you should throw out a few car facts about the car make and model you're currently working on. Keep the great content coming!

I love the mix of budget you use in the videos. It helps to give us ideas on how to improve some of the little things on the cheap and spend a bit more on the things that are more important to us, without our own budgets going sky high!

Love this man, great job with the clean, it really brought the car back to life! Also the wheel spacers made a HUGE difference 🔥

Man these low budget resto's are refreshing.. always so underrated when a car just gets some nice TLC

That random car facts segment is a 👍. Sounds like you were reading them for the first time lol. If you decide to do the random car facts, continue with you reading them for the first time, gives it an authentic feel to it which goes with your channels content

Can’t believe I just found your channel. Awesome vibes and content! The music playing while seeing the cars get worked on is therapeutic

watching videos like these, are the ones that make me appreciate my 05 2.5RS 135k miles and still rockin!

This couldnt have come at a more perfect time! I just bought an 05 impreza 2.5 rs as my first car! very exciting

I typically do budget PC building/modding; you've officially got me excited to work on my 1999 Chevy Silverado!

Trim serum works wonders on plastic. It's worth every penny and the bottle lasts forever. For the exhaust here in the rust belt I use high temperature flat black paint to protect and keep the exhaust system looking new.

Nicely done! But I would go all the way with some rattle cans and repaint the calipers, wheels and Exhaust. Some good Motip colors for each, would go for maybe 15 dollars more and save the car for more rust build-up…

Totally changed the look of the car! A friend of mine told me a few years ago WD-40 & steel wool (the fine stuff) works to clean up wheels & I've used that trick, I also used it to clean up exhaust tips. Just a little 'tip' I thought I'd share with you.

Id love to hear facts about the current model being restored! It would tie well into the videos I think

I’ve been watching you for about 2 years now! hope to see your channel Reach 1mil very soon!

You’ve inspired me to do a two stage build with my 99’ civic hatch. Currently going through stage one where it’s a budget build, and my stage two will be fixing all odds and ends. I’ve primarily focused on the inside for my budget build. I got a ap1 s2000 steering wheel with a nice wrap on it. My carpets are died black and my headliner is a black and white confetti. I have 01’ crv seats in the front and the bench without the backs for the rear seat. My car came 100% stock with minimal rust and 150k miles.

Really liking the production upgrades. Love the effects and camera work. Your channel is definitely going to keep growing

Looks great!! Do a $1,000 budget project. I’d love to see that .

I love the 2.5 RS I wish you did something higher budget with this model

for the exhaust tip i usually use 800 grit wet/dry paper and then move to 1500 and 3000 and its a pretty solid shine

I had some old honda wheels on my ep3, I used simple green without diluting it, I used a softer tire brush and it blew through all the grime. Definitely recommend giving it a try for the wheels!

You always give good tips and with little budget can make amazing changes

Thank for these super low budget ones as well. I have a 2000 honda accord that can use some “cleaning up” and slight mods. Thanks again

Dang, some new H&R springs on that bad boy and you'd be sitting pretty. Nice job. Looks good cleaned up. Blob eyes are my favorite body style.

I swear this videos calm me down. I need one of these a day

Nice little clean up! Good ideas for a quick flip

Dude! Love it! Super simple and brings that car back to life! Keep going bro!

I used to have a 2005 Subaru Impreza Outback in dark gray, and seeing this video brought back good memories of that car! Even the same air freshener I used, so I even know what that car smells like! 🤣

I love how ur just a totally cool regular dude. Keep it up man!! Ur channel is just so positive! We don't all have money to do crazy builds but love tinkering with our cars!

Excellent work! Especially the sticker removal, headlight refinishing, wheel cleaning, interior/exterior detail, etc. I think the value of it increased by 1500 after all the work. Looks alot newer than an 05.

Keep going bro, I'm happy that you're getting the recognition you deserve!! Love from Portugal! 🇵🇹

Nice one 👍 the wheel spacers gave it a better look for sure however a universal front lip and some dark grey paint for the alloys could bring it out even more...

Congratulations for 150k 🎉 Been following u since 25k It’s been a great journey

Great video s as always!!! Enjoyed a lot the car facts too. Thanks buddy

tip: use 3m stripe off wheel on a drill to take off adhesive. I removed a decal around my whole LS in under 30 min.

👍 Looks great! Great job! One thing I would have done is gotten rid of that pinstripe. It was half worn away, anyway. But that's just what I would have done. Not saying that you should have. The facts about cars was a great idea, but what I would recommend is try facts that are related to the make and model of the car in the video. Like, facts about Subaru. 👍

Always LowCar > HighCar for me. Glad to see it clean up quite nicely!

Just randomly stumbled across this video, and I instantly subscribed. I've got a Subaru around the same year and it needs some love as well. Gonna do all of this to my car on my next day off, appreciate you man!

Let the rim cleaner sit much longer, the clear etching would come off with a light sand (2500) and compund.

Great vid appreciate the attention to detail

Not bad and it looks great. Hope your friend enjoys it and get a mechanic to check the car on the engine, chassis, suspension, brakes and others stuff.

MAN I SWEAR YOU ARE SO UNDERRATED KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK AWESOME VIDS KEEP PUTTING SMILES ON PEOPLES FACES 🤩

Great video man keep up the good work

Keep it up bro! Awesome videos and ideas for all of us!

I love these videos. Always puts a smile on my face. Do both man Low Budget, High Budget and hell even a medium one. 💯💯💯✌️✌️

Like your videos, very much informative.

I really like how you stuck to your budget even when it didn't work for the wheels.

Around $500-800 transformations are the best IMO

Some tips I use - jewelry or metal polish/ cleaner or steel wool on the pipes, easy off oven cleaner for super dirty wheels, and goof off for stickers and decals

Great tip to get your rims looking BRAND NEW without all the elbow grease is go to Home Depot and grab some muriatic acid. Add a few drops into a spray bottle with water and all that grime will come up so easily. Just don’t let it sit I can eat the clear coat off. Did it on my Jetta with horrible caked on break dust and it melted right off. 😊

It still looks a lot better than some examples I've seen. The most common impreza in Israel is a 1.6l 105hp front wheel drive automatic. It's the barest base model you can think of and people beat on them relentlessly. A fun fact for you: before Subaru's debut in the US the country where they sold the most cars was israel. The humble Subaru Leone is an iconic car for us and quite a lot of them are kept by enthusiasts.

Good work man!

Small things make a difference 🔥🔥

Outstanding Bro! 👍

I would’ve liked to see : black wheels, calipers painted, back emblems plastic dipped, front emblem deleted and some hella horns, taillights painted with nite shades on the red area . All this on the $150 budget. But that’s just me. Great job , I like all your videos

Love to see these transformation videos and you should help people that need it. I.E. like the Ford car video for that girl.

You can use aluminum foil to polish exaust tips , soap it up and rub with an ebrasive sponge and then with the aluminum foil and it should gloss up a bit :D

It's very impressive to transform that car in a low budget. It looks clean and new.

Doin the Lords work! You’re my favorite car channel and I love your taste in cars. Cheers from Indy.

Personally my Favorite car is Subaru and when I see someone doing something with it makes me fall in love with this awesome car, good content and its nice to see your channel growing!!

Love your content so much keep the good work!!

Awesome job again! Nicely done with spacers. Don't mind seeing either higher price or lower price build. Not sure if you are using a dirt trapper(maybe$10 at Amazon) in your bucket to rid of grit in your wash mitt. Prevents scratching up or swirl marks on black cars. Got yourself another scriber!

Loved the wheel spacer mod!

As a blobeye WRX owner it was nice to see this simple build. I would had taken the restoration a little further by giving it a good hand wax and painting the calipers. To get those wheels clean I recommend using Eagle one Mag wheel cleaner. Its pretty much wheel acid that professional detailers use. I used a similar product back when I used to detail cars. It works like a charm on the toughest grime with a brush. Just make sure to not let it sit for too long in the hot sun.

keep them coming!

I’m happy this is a simple build ( i was scared bcs u strates to do some more expensive build but i’m happy now)

Quick tip for those stickers residues isopropyl alcohol always works!

Steel wool soap pads are great for rusted metal, like the exhaust or anywhere under the car really.

Use some cheap high heat spray paint on the exhaust pipe. Slightly more expensive, get some metal polish, it's great for everything, and protects.

Nicee was hoping you got rid of the pinstripe on the sides too but the spacers definitely made the fitment better

Great work! I'd like to see a high budget, $200+

Those soft brillo pads really do the trick in cleaning those rims, something to try next time 😁

Those wheel spacers made a crazy difference, a very nice touch. Great vid

I think it would interesting to see a lower budget to see how far you can go with less money.

Next time you have trouble with grim on cars, like you had with the wheels, use Rubbing alcohol on your scuff pad, I use it all the time and haven't found anything yet that it won't take off. I also use it instead of prep-sol before I shoot paint, it works just as well as prep sol does but it's a dollar as opposed to $10-$12.....

Steel wool and brasso cleans non poloshed exhaust pipes to their best, been doing it for years. Brasso is my go to for polishing/cleaning most metals

Been watching videos all day (sick) and moved on from the Fit which I hope to win for my son. I'm going to try the Turtle Wax light repair on my old Mazda - that looks a lot easier than some other fixes I've seen! Thanks for the tip to skip the one oily step.

The turtle wax headlight restoration kit is the best make sure it’s the one with the sealant wipes and uv sealant wipes

Amazing video! I love the all the videos so far! It would be really cool to see a bit bigger budget say 750-1000

Dang this video is a vibe! Not sure if you edit it, or hire it out but well done. So relaxing

I think i like the 1,000 dollar builds the best. Rlly brings the car to life

I liked the random car facts, shout out to the lil bro for the great idea!

Got a 05 Impreza rs wagon. Needs clean like this

Car facts was a great idea!

that's my childhood dream car right there and still is

you can get wish exhaust tips for like 5 bucks. they work if you make them work haha.

Love your videos awesome stuff

I love smpl builds cuz i love simple builds :)

so happy to a fellow Jerseyian do their thing man 😎

I love the videos man and would like to see some higher budget builds

$750 - $1500 builds are fun to watch.

What’s helping more than all that product is the filter you used in the video.
