The Best BMW! Final Touches & Detail on my $500 E46 330i Sport 

you don't understand just how satisfying it is watching you bring back this car to life when it was probably destined for the scrapper. Also, you keep your tools clean, organized and put away after use. It's extremely infuriating watching some of these youtube channels where people work on cars, and their shop is a complete mess, tools all over the place. It's horrendous. I have to usually click off. Yours? satisfying. Would love to see a video on a shop cleanup, tools tour. Maybe recommendations for power tools etc. Keep up the great work, I'm looking forward to more content. Cheers!

Dude. I’m very glad I stumbled across your video. I’ve had a 2004 325i for 10 years now and you’ve inspired me to give it a very thorough clean inside and out and bring it back to life.

I love how thorough you are with your cleaning and repurposing older cars such a cool idea keep make them videos bro

I always have a soft spot seeing these older bmw's getting restored back to their former glory. Please grant it a second life and keep up with the maintenance

so happy to see that u are saving and bringing back to life these super nice old bmw's respect!!

Good stuff man! A thorough interior clean is such a rewarding job.

If you want to re-dye the drivers seat M539 Restorations did it on his E46 a year or so ago and had some great tips and tricks. All for a budget build but I know far to many folks who have learned the cheap tires lesson the hard way. I always try and get a solid brand, even if it means saving up a lot more. Can't put a price on safety, especially when you're driving hard. Looking forward to seeing the other cheap E46 on the channel

love the attention to detail, especially seeing as its all being done with fairly standard tools. also nice seeing someone who knows what they're talking about and explaining all the little hints and tips.

My 330ci is called manfred😂 he’s playing me up at the moment with the alarm going off and the windows opening on their own. Love the work. Keep it up mate👍🏼

I just purchased a 2003 330 convertible with sport package. Ive watched 40 utube videos and yours was truly among the very best. I chose a convert because my first car was a BRG MGB. I love to hear the true sound of the exhaust with any,.. and all sportscars Ive owned. And at 68 Ive owned an embarrassing number. Because auto enthusiasts may age in number but never lose their enthusiasm. Great video.

Bro your videos are high quality, no filler and show what we want to see! Keep it up man you’re at 4k subs but with this method you’re gonna grow!

Great video man! The old gal is running strong! Love your videos! Keep pumping them out!

Everyone talking about how satisfying it is but that mustache is epic

I’m so happy I found this channel yesterday. Made this blue 330 a gem🎉

My guy, you need to upload more often, im out here waiting for a week for a new video 😁 Great stuff as always!

Another fantastic watch bro. The e46 is a tidy ride when all fixed up. Such a good platform to work on. Can't wait to see the other one given new life.

Nice tutorial. Just got my hands on a FL garage find 330ci stick.These puppies just cradle you in a zoom like a bumble bee.

I like using tuff stuff and detail brushes to clean the interior plastics

You do a far better job than most of the used car lots I've had to do work for. If they just put a little more effort, people would be willing to spend the extra cash a a super clean car. I like using a Citrus cleaner for all the sticky soft touch stuff, especially sticky horn/air bag steering wheel covers.

awesome video - great edits great dialogue! keep this shit up!

I bought a 2003 BMW 325i for $500 from a relative cause he lost the keys and he didn't maintain the car so I'm basically going to be bringing it back to life. Video motivated me to start!

Daily my BMW e46 sedan every day in Canada winter just replaced my power steering reservoir this week and changed 2 ignition coils and spark plugs amazing how these cars drive for 20yrs + ! Great content 🇨🇦 and ❤ ny scan tool 😂

Youre a happy man and we are happy viewers. Not forgetting your E46s got a new happy life.

Haha too funny I named my e46 Betty 😂 Love the detailing stuff. Now I really want to take my seats out to vacuum under them. To refresh that worn bolster on the driver’s side, colourlock has some awesome products I’m going to try on mine. On that sedan, I think you can just replace the headlight lens with new ones? That would definitely refresh that front end and headlights….better visibility at night too.

If I was driving alone all the time, then I'd detail my car to this level, but since I mostly have somebody with me, then I clean the most crucial parts - vacuuming everything, cleaning surfaces, sometimes when carpet gets dirty under the protective carpet, i clean it out :D

Great video's my man! Love your channel. Keep it up. You got massive youtube potential.

Your mustache game is strong. Love the videos.

the moment he turned the boba around, my heart stopped for a second haha

Wow she is coming along great, love watching your videos, it just makes me miss the manual E46 330i that I had, it was the exact same colour as your one

New vid! 🎉 You’re really convincing me to buy an E46 to toy with.

Greetings from Romania! I just found your channel, good content. Please keep it up!

Love your videos, they're really good. 👌🏿👍🏿

This is so wholesome, you’ve done some magic 💪

Great video! Glad you are enjoying Trim Shine 😀

I just recently found your channel and subscribed, I've been Bing watching here in NC. I have 2 bmw 325i and Xi & 3 325i and Xi. The wagons are my favorite as they both have drilled and slotted rotors, koni adjustable shocks with aftermarket suspension etc.... so yes I'm very impressed with the amount of knowledge you have. Keep putting these videos out. I was really excited watching this particular video because of the detail and new tires. Awesome job!

Great video as usual but at 39:27 you risked undoing all that hard work flipping that drink upside down. So glad it didn’t open up right there. Keep it up 👍

Great Ride, watching you work on the Bimmer makes me feel a little more comfortable about buying a BMW.

Oooh so excited! She's gonna be soooo nice :)

I need to watch the video of him getting it running, I bought an e36 vert for $400 last month I’m putting back on the road :)

Love your vids keep it up❤

Interesting how the 255 tires in the back rub considering that is the factory size for those wheels. I also have 255s in the back on my e46 sedan and experience no rubbing.

Nice transformation 💯

It’s a Really Nice job you did on this video ! 👍

Another brilliant video, keep up the good work bro

learning a lot from you just the difference is I have 330d manual here in Europe

Awesome bro! I found the same car for about the same price. Probably dumped 3500 into parts in the past 3 years. I've gotten around 50k miles out of her so far. Love this car so much.

Highly recommend xenonsonline, less known company been using for a while now, quality quartz housing and assemblies, ran in e90 never had an issue and they fill there own HID tubes so you color ranged bulb option. Very affordable for budget projects.

I’m about to get a 330ci I haven been wanting to know more about this car but I’ve been wanting to clean it and I’m excited after watching this video. You seem like a chill dude. But keep it up brotha. Be safe.

Yahoo indeed! I get the same thrill when I turn my key. Love the startup sound. Great job as usual. Tire prices are crazy now. Beautiful detail result. I like the overhead view when driving. Please show us the ATF refresh. Email for sponsorships for new brake setup. Highlight your mechanic background and they should pick up your pure joy and love for This car. Hello Beembo and Stoptec.

255/35/18 is the correct size for this car and you need to do the rear bushings and wishbones and tracking afterwards and it will be all good. The evidence was on the tyres worn on the inside that there is to much camber and the top of the tyres is rubbing on the wheelarch. No need to grind or hammer anything 😉

Funny how I went from a spoonkid video to this one

Gut gemacht mein Freund! Chapeau!

“Oh damn, he got da PRINX.”

Following since first episode, awesome work buddy!

Get your self set of wheel spacer you ll be good no more rubbing

Yeah, you're supposed to unplug the battery when removing the seats. If you turn the car on and the seats aren't connected you'll get an airbag light. You need to get that light reset. Yup, anytime you are doing anything airbag related, make sure you disconnect the battery

That phone situation happened to me! Took a bit to figure out where it was.

Great content.... keep up the good work... HINT: Spaceres on the back wheels will do the job with rubber touching the body...

You can use Doc Baileys Leather black to recondition that tired leather.

Hey man loving the content and really looking forward to you growing this channel :). I echo the advice already mentioned by others regarding the language, and I'm glad that you not taking offence to the suggestions. I also watch vids with the family around sometimes, so profanity limits when and what I get to watch the content. I was was so looking forward to a detail of this car! As much as I love the mechanical content, there is nothing more satisfying seeing a transformation from crusty to fabulous! Keep up the great work!

When you take off the lug nuts and it’s giving you a hard time to pull off, turn around a donkey kick it and it’ll come off easier and you’ll be there so it doesn’t hit the ground and scuff the rim or anything

Really great content

Another video letsgoo😎👍🏽

the things i would do to have my own garage with this much space

Damn this thing is clean! Like it

Awesome

New subscriber here, I’m really enjoying the vids, the car looks great too.

Brenda's nice and clean she is a stunner. Have you considered installing spacers on these rear wheels?

Mine stick also tends to go more to the right, looking forward to the DIY

I really love these videos! Would also love to see a buyers guide for the e46. My plan is to buy a used one in decent condition with a few issues here and there to fix myself but I really struggle to know what would be red flags and find out what issues are acceptable

I like all your videos I learned a lot from it I am a fan thank you... But I'll say this with respect but I cannot stop looking up your mustache.. it's almost like perfect. Side by side..lol.... But thank you for your video man I enjoy all of them

Great work man!

Keep bringing good content 👌 💯

Perfect! just needs headlights polished and it will be 10 years younger

Headlight lens needs some love Bro.

"Isn't that satisfying" read my mind

really happy you made it, I am in a bit worse thing as I need to cut out rust from wheel arches and sills, this will take few years to sort :D

Nice video, you should consider getting the bmw scanner 1.4 as it’s really useful for figuring out what’s wrong the car. Might even tell you what’s wrong with the cluster if you are still having that issue!

Good work, man!

Very nice!

Dope. Total transformation 💯🔥

I'm 5 seconds in and I couldn't get any harder

Never seen anyone jack an e46 from the middle? Could you show us what jack point didnyou use? Would be very helpful

I personally hate xenon light bulb, halogens are better for my vision, I just get the brightest one to offer

i love your videos!!!

I love this car ! In Australia my dad has the exact same topaz blue and car but it’s a 318 I! I don’t know if you have those in America !!

The Michelins run larger than most manufacturers, odds are the new tires will not rub.

Bro u need e46 330i touring for that tyre transportation...)

Great job

My ZKW bowls are burnt. I can barely see at night lol

I unplugged my front passenger seat to vacuum and clean and when I plugged it back in the airbag light is on and won’t go away. Do you have any idea why that might be??

Great job!

I was wondering if you know what the unconnected plug under the rear seat connects to?

I wanted to ask about you jacking the car from the side like that. I didnt realize that was a place to jack from? Normally I only use the jack pads. Whereabouts do you place the jack under there?

You making me buy one these bro 😭

Really rare to get these for 500 dollars in that condition never in California that’s for sure

500? You know how much one of these costs here in Portugal? 15k €. I have a 320d and they even Sell for 4 to 5 k €.

Headlights need some detailing work

what interior parts are leather? seats only?

Simple green and water for the carpet or just simple green?
