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?
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.
Stock rims were better
Plus a little mechanic shop needed to pull that off or pay someone enormous money.
@@mayankrana7324stock rims look like ass on the e46
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 👍
That warms my heart that. Massive compliments. btw I bought the house because of the accompanying garage lol
I opened his passenger door and fast food trash and cups just fell out everywhere, who’d have thought?! Haha
Great work man, I’d trust you with my car anyway.
Tim your attention to detail is second to none. You Sir have created a masterpiece. I really enjoy watching your videos. I have learned so much.
Thank you. Im happy to share it with you and other likeminded people:)
This must be the cleanest E46 I've ever seen. Nice work, man!
Nice to see a Follow Dane doing restaurations on UA-cam too! Excited to see what yout going to work on next
Too few of us here😊
I'm just about finished doing this to my touring. Looks good.
That was such a joy to watch! Thank you for taking the time to document your journey! As someone who woudn't know how to begin something like this with my own e46, this was awesome!
Start small:) then you’ll figure it out along the way.
One of the most beautiful works I have seen!
I have an E-36 325 coupe and my ambition is to bring it as close as possible to this level.
Thank you. Thats very kind of you. Absolutely a car worthy of such a job yoo. Love the e36 platform❤️
this is the cleanest e46 i have ever seen i wish i could do the same to mine
this channel is so underrated the the work you put on
Thank you so much
Outstanding work!
amazing how this car turns out. thats some professional work.
Good work wish I was in a position to do that to my e46, I do my best, but yours is just another level.
virkelig flot arbejde Tim💪. dine videoer får mig til at savne min gamle e46 323ci🥲
Tak Tony. De er også dejlige biler de ci’er
Your a pro Tim! Enjoyed your video!
Huge project, really impressive!
This is perfect. Gonna do the same with mine
Dont forget rearsubframe reinforcment plates, they had cracks in the car and didnt reinforce i cant understand why not..
@@sub7up. that's on the list too. Even for the shocks upfront as well
I don't think this car is going to be ragged. That weld will be stronger than a factory released car. He drilled then filled.
Give it a nice paint polish and you are done 💯
Thank you. I will do it in a video or two. Working on a lowering spring video right now. After thag though, why not:)
Fantastisk arbejde Tim! Dejlig at se en god video efter en hård men vellykket EL eksamen!
Håber det gik godt💪 og tak for støtten:-)
Great popup, also currently doing a E46 330 @ sub7up
Making a trackcar 👍💨
Good job my friend. Incredible work and a lot of time and effort!!
You made a marvelous job
Thats what i'm tryna to do on mine that is in much worse condition than yours
Thank you. Im sure it will be done one day or another💪
Autor did perfectly, awesome work
Great job takes a lot of patience for v quality of workmanship u put into v job. I take my hat of to u friend. I will look out for ur other videos.Victor from UK.
Thank you. I appreciate the support sir/Victor. Much appreciated.
Ты востанавливаешь живой автомобиль)А ты попробуй восстановить полностью проржавевший и убитый автомобиль)
great job there mate. amazing work.
Thank you.
You did a fantastic and painstaking job,please where are you located.
Thank you🙏 Denmark
This is beautiful artwork. Amazing !
I like how real this guy is, no BS. Subsribed and thank you!
Please complete average acceleration from 50-110 as I believe you gained HP just by the way you treat her.
Thank you. I try my best to not fluff around. I get a bit of discounts on parts from the local parts pusher, but no sponsors or gifts💪
Great content and thanks for sharing the knowledge. New subscriber from 🇲🇽👍and owner of 325Ci (06) and 330Ci (03). Lots of work and money, but great cars! 😎👌
Thank you for subbing. In glad youre here being that if you own 2 of these machines you clearly know your way around a bmw💪
what to do when there is nothing to restore OEM+? Luckly BMWs of this age break down all the time.
Theres always something 🤣 But im kindda looking into getting am e36. But i will try and make a poll for us so we can vote on what people would like to see. E30, e36, e38 e39 or maybe another e46! The model is not super important to me as i will end up selling it either way to fund the next project lol
Outstanding, mind blowing.
Car is having the time of its life 😂
In watching this great video I kept telling myself you must be the person who designed this car since you were able to disassemble and reassemble each and every part of it !!
I own a 2006 330 ci ZHP with a brand new German engine that replaced the old one and I gave done lots of maintenance but would be interested to know what does the work you did cost ?
Thank you. Thats very kind of you.
I love the zhp’s.. very rare by now!
I dont reallt know tbh. But it wasnt cheap. Maybe 5 or 6k or so
Very cool working!!!
great vid. did you have to pick the creepiest music ever for the background noise?
Didnt find it creepy myself 😅
Amazing job i wish to make my e46 like this ❤
goddamn that became like it was just out of factory
Great video, how long did it take you to make all this? And where did you manage to find a gear shifter repair kit.
About a year id say. I bought everything for the shifter individually. Part mumbers in the description
Just wait till this guy discovers spraying it with a can of brake cleaner and wiping it down. Just kidding, amazing work.
Awesome work! 👌
Thank you. Much appreciated:-)
Next up. Help me with the e46 330i I just bought from you : ))
Ingen problem, du skriver bare:)
Massive job done
Which paint did u use for the wheel arches? Looking for that OEM colour
Hammerite. But i dont know the color code as i got the wrong one. Too yellow. Then mixed it with black for a more olive green like color
@@OEMplusRESTO ah too bad but thanks!
Hi, how does that racing diff kit holds up after 6 months ? Is it worth doing or save up for actual lsd?
Ive put 3000km on it, beating on it regularly. I still holds. But most people say they dont last long. Personally, if i were to do it again, id do it “proper” and get a quaife/blackline torsen instead
hvis du nogensinde får lyst til at sælge den er jeg meget interesseret.
Den kommer nok til salg om er par måneder. Og mange tak for kommentarerne
super underrated video
Hvad er det for en lak du bruger til undervognen?
Hammerite på pensel.
I want to learn how to do this. how would I start
Anyone can do it if they have the space, time and tools:-)
How much cost to do the same job for my e46?
Impossible to say really but good question
I buy the next month an e46 330i cope how much does it cost to restaurate the car like this? Can someone help me 😃
Good choice in car:)
I want my e46 to look the same way when I am underneath it as yours.
You can do it too💪
What's your take on powdercoating the suspension parts instead of hammerite? Or maybe both would be good (powder + hammerite) ?
Powdercoat will always beat regular hammerite or any other paint. I hope i havent made an impresseion it wont. For me its a matter of getting stuff dione at my own pace without involving anyone else in it. Being i mainly drive n good weather hammerite will get me s long way but powdercoat would get me a mot further honestly, im a broke boy lol. Evwry dollar saved i can use on other mods that matter more
@@OEMplusRESTO But sometimes powder does chip of or something, so maybe hammerite over powder would be a good sandwich? I'm kind of delaying my rear suspension tear down/upgrade to be honest... Some parts are still missing. But hats off to you, your videos make me want to progress with my journey :)
@samisvideo if i were to do it over and not worry about cost or time id “just” powdercoat the front and rear subrframe. Everthing else paint is fine. Tbh paint is fine if you only tale the car out on good days too.
@@OEMplusRESTO I really like that you're active in the comments section. Thumbs up! Looking forward to future videos.
@samisvideo bro im here for the comments/engagement/community. I only started sharing because i want to reach out. Happy to connect. I can chat cars all day long if you will💪
it's amazing)
how much did you invest in restoration not counting hours ?
I dont know. Not sure i want to either😅
@@OEMplusRESTO great youtuber
Bravo :)
Άψογος!❤️
Thanks🙏
100 bucks and you do the same in my e46
can you do mine please
Id love to lol but im a bit hung up already
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
Hey, can you contact me! Interested in doing something the same on my e46!
Wow, what a video.
I was in awe watching that.
I've got a 2006 E46 CD and I'd love to be able to do that kind of restoration to it.
Restoring the calipers with replacement kit and painting, instead of replacing them was class also.
Congratulations sir.
🎉😮😊🎉
Thank you sir
Man I enjoy every minute of that video... Your attention to detail is mind-blowing 🤯 I wish I had a garage like you... Or even just a lift... I definitely would spend all of my time in there... please don't stop making videos man... 10⭐ 10👍🏾
Thank you. Im humbled. Having a lift definitely makes a big difference. Can only recommend.
Nice compilation. Great to see it from start to finish. You really see how far you've come with the car. Still jealous of your garage and lift 😂❤
Im jealous of your 318🤣
Its also starting to look really good. Well done.
Change The music
feels like a mission impossible scene with the music😂
Great effort and a great video!
The work you did on something that very few, if any, will ever see speaks volumes about your love for this car. It makes my soul happy.
This is amazing! How much would you charge to do mine?!
Thank you. Sorry i only have time for my own car
To be honest u should've kept the csl trunk and wheels it looked good
I appreciate the honesty. Thank you. These wheels in black doesnt do it justice. I did score an oe color version of it lately which will be going on them in a video or two
Looking forward to this one 😁
Hi, superb restoration. What part are you replacing to reduce the play in your gear knob? (If possible give me the OEM reference) thank you for your response.
Hi. did you fint the info? I have a video “all the little things” that has part numbers
Sooooooooo clean!!!!!!! Can u do my e46 next lol
Very committed work. I like it a lot. The end-result is speaking for itself!
great job! what did you use to paint under the gas tank? i like that the color is very similar to oem.
Thank you:) Some custom color Hammerite.
Good work
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
TUV technician will love this car ! Awesome work, my dream 330 ci !
Bravo 👏, thanks for taking me through your entire restoration journey, you did what everybody who loves/owns an e46 dreams of, you took no shortcuts. As bmw enthusiast who's also restoring my own e46 your videos have been motivation to me. Thank you again. BMW E46 FTW!!!
Thank you. It motivates me when i get messages like this. I have a lift though which makes everything so much easier than what 9/10 of others are doing out there but thank you. What e46 did you go with?
@@OEMplusRESTO I had to say something your videos where awesome. One day I'll have a lift like yours I just have to convince my wife lol. I went with a 2005 e46 330xi, I needed an AWD car for the winter when it snows, I love it. I also own a 2020 rwd m340i but it isn't the best on those snowie icy days.
@@marveliosguevara9988 that 340 must rip compared to an e46😮 onæy tried the 330i and evem that one was pretty nippy!! I was in luck with the lift. Previois owner of the house installed it😅
Man, seriously, this isn‘t just a restoration, it‘s a piece of art. Lovely work. 👌
Thank you sir
Hey dude just want to say been watching your videos for a few months now and you’re really doing a fantastic service for the e46 community here man! 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! Appreciate your time and knowledge bud, thanks again for all your hard work and your willingness to assist and help the community. Not a lot of humble guys out here working on motors.
Maximum respect ❤
Right back at you dude😎. I like Sharing with you guys so im just happy pepple want to watch the videos, and like you, also reach out. If people find my videos helpful for their next e46 project, my goal has been achieved. A Big thank you for the kind words😊
good job man …Wish you to work on my m52b20TUB …
Cool video but disturbing music.
Yeah there is room for improvement it seems.
oh man this is so beautiful to watch, so wonderfully restored. I hope one day I can get the space to even do it half as clean as you have
Thank you for the kind words. If you have the time you can do it too:)
Hey bro can you do my e46
I dont have the time lol
Hey bro how much did spend on this restoration if you don’t mind sharing
Amazing video. How have you found the hammerite smooth paint, does it crack with stones hitting it? Hows it holding up, looks great amazing 😀
I dont drive it enough to give a good answer. Sorry. So far so good though
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
Good job!🎉
That was amazing what a talented and hard working guy you are. I have a 2003 E39 530i Msport which definitely needs the same treatment although I think I might now just paint the break callipers which is probably the limit of mine mechanical skills but your still a great inspiration and that underside paint colour is cool . Keep the videos coming I just subscribed for more inspiration ....👍
Thank you. Ive had a regular 530ia and its the car ive enjoyed the most i terms of just daily driving and useability. Would love to restore on this channel honeslt
How stock is it?? The msport stock ate very capable imo. What a lovely car
Great Video, inspired me to do the same
Thank you. That means alot to me💪
Fin bil og bra arbeid!!
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 !
Thank for the offer. Is ot a kit to blowrust prevention inside small areas a bruah cant get to?
@@OEMplusRESTO Yea and also the mike sanders fat itself :)
Its used for places like the rear fenders to let the fat creep into the deep spots and prevent water from getting there :D
Every summer it becomes loose again and creeps further so its a do once forever thing
He is an artist!!
