    Love your attention to detail and how you’re so meticulous, eg, removal of bumpers, door protective strips, door weather rubber strips, roof frame, emblems, etc. Practically any concealed parts, nooks & crannies are brushed, washed, and cleaned. Nothing escapes your eyes. Wow!

    I saved this video after I watched it several times. I have a 2000 E46 328 Ci that I'm restomoding, and I found this video both informative and really therapeutic and relaxing. I love doing this to my own cars. It's nothing for me to spend 2 hours or more detailing my cars and my wife's cars. Keep up the great work, guys. 👍🏾

      I am a current owner of one and can honestly say I have badly neglected mine. Due to long work hours and studying late nights and weekends. After seeing this video it made me teary eyed but it gives me hope that detailing experts like them exist. When I get through this I am calling them up!

    What's the whole story on this BMW? I know you mentioned it was found in the desert, but is it the cheapest E46 M3 found in the desert in Cali and is this the first wash in TENNNNNN YEARS? 🤣😂

    • @IAMDetailing
      @IAMDetailing  ปีที่แล้ว

      Tell Jakub that a couple times about the music please! LOL
      Jakub is always on the hunt, and he's been in a bit of a e46 M3 kick lately. While searching, he found a few good options. This one came up on the radar, and as you might guess, the ones that look the most beat up tend to be the most affordable! And he knows what he's doing to make it perfect again. The white wasn't the most popular car, and you can still find these cars for a pretty darn good price. Excited to see it all come together
