- čas přidán 5. 06. 2024
- Watch us totally restore this BMW E30 325ic back to showroom ready! We replaced countless parts, deep cleaned every surface, pulled entire interior and had the seats reupholstered, and even replaced the soft top. That's all in addition to our FULL SERVICE package that includes dry ice cleaning, paint correction, interior detailing & ceramic coating.
This has to be the cleanest E30 in Orange County, no doubt! This one is for our E30 lovers! You know we LOVE E30s around this shop (with both Jakub and Evan owning several in their days), and we have a bit of a reputation for restoring these DTM legends.
This is going to be video you come back and watch a few times because it has SO many things that we swap out and clean that aren't part of the normal program!

I have never seen such a thorough detailing of a vehicle in my life. What an absolutely exceptional job!!!
Thanks so much!
I'm a former BMW mechanic and had a brace of E21's and E30's of my own growing up. This is one of the absolute best resto-detailing jobs I've ever seen.
It's drop dead fucking gorgeous.
Were you intending to replace the underbody anti-rust coating that you ice-blasted off? I get it looks all clean now - but there's a reason why it's coated from factory.
@@VanHofeldt That's what the customer wanted as the car is only driven a few times a year, it was protected with clear wax.
Guys, that anti-rust coating only works if it's intact anyway. If it's compromised it will actually trap moisture and promote rust. There is no substitute for paint and wax.
@@ArmySigs why is it not driven 🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲
@YOYO MA who is taking a vintage bmw off-roading 🤦♀️
The reason it looks so good underneath is because the factory undercoating works and did its job.
Removing it is a mistake, like cleaning a valuable old coin. It's only original once.
Words are not enough to describe your work at this channel. I can’t take it anymore.It’s too perfect. Every second I’m amazed by how you detail even the smallest detail.
That means the most to us :)
The most thorough detail and restoration I have seen in a while; you guys knocked it out of the park! 👍👍
Love to hear it! Thanks Craig!

indeed
I have only one question, how much does this cost?
For that amount of hard work it should cost more than that car.
Never thought it’s possible to restore something that good. I know car was in pretty good shape before it came but still UNBELIEVABLE restoration and I’m just speechless. Didn’t read enough books to describe what I think about all this work 🤣🤣🤣.
Just and simply amazing.
I love the attention to detail, no pun intended. When even the screws get repainted, you know passionate people are at work.
Appreciate the support! It takes the right viewer to understand all those little things :) thanks for watchin!
That dry ice machine is SO satisfying. I could do that all day!
I've been to three worlds fairs, two Mississippi goat roapings, and even been to a midget toss, and I have never seen anything like it. Truly amazing job.
Personally, I've never seen such a job well done ever on car detailing on CZcams, I AM Detailing.. you guys are just amazing. Bravo.
I own a 1990 325i BMW convertible. Red. Zero rust. Runs great. Bought it for our son when he was a sophomore in high school. He didn’t take it to college. I drive it on weekends. One day #1 son will want to take it with him. It will be ready for him, again
Amazing 🙌🏽🫡
For the quality of work this has got to be the most under-subscribed detailing channel on CZcams. These videos are next-level!
Thank you! We’re working on upping the video quality to boost up the sub count. Soon :)
Hey guys.
25 years ago when i was 18 my first car was a BMW 325i Cabrio in red so i really appreciate what you guys did. You guys are LEGENDS
A friend of mine in germany had driven this model. It‘s about 34 years ago. Nice to see this beauty. Your job is what we‘re calling detailing. Unbelievable 👍👍👍👍
Changing definitions everyday!
Just a tip for anyone watching, you can completely restore the faded black plastics as well as the faded orange press button on the belt buckle with lexol vinylex. Spray it on thick and let it dry on it’s own. Buff off with a microfiber towel on the black but on the orange use your finger to spread the dried film then lightly buff. Works like a charm 👌🏽
My friends, you are magicians! It's fun to watch you from the sidelines. Professionals at the highest levels!!!
The best car detail work i've ever seen. You are the best team workers
That is just incredible. So in depth. Can’t imagine the cost of all this work.
Guessing 4-5k
It was definitely a big project!
@@marybetheby5184 hahaha I would double that if not way more.
@@IAMDetailing how much was this package ?
@@atn2666 There is no " package" there was so much one-off work done here the car means something to someone and they decided to invest in it and it paid off. There was an entire new top installed, new leather, computer, etc etc. I live in the area and when my Porsche leaves Sleepers I will be heading over there for some work but people should not ask what this unique service cost as it's between the shop and the owner.
Damn,dry ice cleaning the interior!This ish is just so cool..
Ice coldddd 🥶🥶
Dry ice cleaning the interior - great stuff!
Best detail ever seen on any car. Speechless.
🥹 thanks Darren!
Each time it just becomes more epic. You’ve outdone yourselves again. I don’t even know where to begin. If it wasn’t for the video no one could describe the amount of detail, time, patience and dedication you guys put into your work. Just Unbelievable! What else can I say…
Thats one of the major reasons we do these videos. Sight unseen, you have no idea how much work it takes to do simmering like this
@@IAMDetailing I believe you!
Always loved this body style. You all made this restoration look easy, wish all restorations were this fast. Someone is going to be very happy with that end result!
We hope so! Thanks for watching Craig!
im speechless. the best detailing channel ive ever seen, Guys this is what you call restoration!
Thank you!!
This One nearly brought a Tear to my Eye 😢 Well-done to the Team out at I AM Detailing you really take good care of your Customers
This is one of the most beautiful transformations I’ve ever seen! What a lovely work you guys did!!!
This is just out of this world level of detailing, u guys are just incredible.. thanks for sharing this!
Hands down the best detail/restoration video I’ve ever seen!!!!!
That's high honors! Thanks Rick!
i have seen many car detailing channels but truly speaking your work of detailing is just amazing...its called true detailing...very nice hard work..keep it up😊😊❤❤
Unbelievable job!! It was like a new car. I owned a 1987 325is. Wonderful cars.
I'm watching it in Korea and I was surprised by the crazy quality. I respect you.
If I had lived in this country, I would have run right away.
You guys are the best detailers i have ever seen. I bet it costs an arm and a leg. I think its worth it.
That was an enormous amount of work, that car never looked better
Now that is full service detailing. Blurring the lines between detailing and restoration! Awesome job. I did this level of detailing to my Alfa 147 GTA but over a period of about 12 months, was very satisfying when finished but now I don't have a closed garage anymore and damn birds seem to love hopping on it and pooping everywhere 😮💨
I've never seen someone on CZcams get SO stuck into a car! Fair play man great work!
this restoration is intricate and exquisite!!! the detailing is crisp and in-depth! awesome!
Thank you for watching!
My favourite detailing channel by far and i watch dozens, the camera angles, the slick editing , the music you choose and the incredible breadth of cars you get to work on, its all killer. Congrats guys. 👍👍🙌🙌
Stipt polish point on you tube, it’s in dutch language but the video’s are great
İşini böylesine titiz ve özenle yapan bir ekip bulmak bu işin en zor kısmı olmalı. Çok iyi bir iş çıkartmışlar. Tebrikler.
Damn it, now i gotta clean my tool compartment.... 😆
Incredible job! 👌
This is actual detailing. You even resprayed the screw heads! Phenomenal
teamwork by uniting all our talents is reflected in a beautiful e30, I love you friends let's go for more beautiful cars 🏎
Incredible attention to detail. You have a true passion for detailing cars. This is why I brought you two e30 m3s last month :)
Love the range of vehicles y'all do as well as the depth of restoration you go to make these back to OEM. Makes me want to restore my E30 sedan!
Appreciate hearing that Vincero! Thank you for being part of our community
Wow, that's really an amazing and truthfull restoration. Congratulations, guys!
Flawless! Superb job . Looks brand new and showroom condition again Amazing guys you are
Looking at the finished car literally gives me goosebumps...beatiful work guys
Definitely a car worth doing this sort of work. I once owned an Alpina E21 BMW and I have many fond memories of the model. This was a great video to watch - as always! Hope you were well remunerated! Nice touch regarding the window trim, by the way. I remember in my experience it was always a weakpoint on the early 3 series cars. It would corrode and oxidise quite quickly, requiring constant replacement.
The most amazing detailing job I've ever seen , thnk u guys , great job !!
👏👏👏👏👏
Wow what an AWESOME job!! One of the best details I've seen!
Amazing is quite understatement for your job. I am awestruck. This car looks like more than a brand new. Hats off to you guys ❤
It makes us happy that others get such an enjoyment from watching our work. It pushes us to be better every day and keep creating new great things for our community. Thanks for watching Rohit, we appreciate the support!
I fell in love with the brand with my first look at a 318i coupe as a child. I owned many since then.
WOW! For perfection, this one takes the cake. Beautiful.
No matter what time of day or night, nor what mood I might be in, I watch your videos and I'm in a better mood after seeing such mastery of craft and attention to detail being displayed . I can't wait to buy my dream car, just to ship it down to you for a detail od this quality. Thanks for making my days and nights better 😁
Congratulations to such craftsmanship and pride in work = No.1 level 👍🏼🏁
Enfin !! Un grand détailling complet de la voiture fait avec passion jusque dans les moindres détails très très rare ce niveau et qualité de finition je ne m'en lasse pas de regarder la vidéo
Sometimes i put thumbs up for videos,but this one demonstrate how to do things properly. Fantastic job!
Stumbled onto this video and up there with one of the best detail videos I’ve seen and what a job !!! Gained a follower
That was such an amazing job I would consider bringing my Z4 to America to have that done. It is a level of detail I have never seen before. I love the way you pick the interior apart (respray the seat belt attachment !) Two many detail moments of attention to mention! If only my car could be done at this nano level. I wish you had a Uk workshop.
Incredible attention to detail, that red drips with gloss. Great detail from dry ice to nano graphene to dash renewal. Oh, the seats, the new convertible roof. Well done, lovely work.
Wow i never knew the interior could be done. Amazing
Worth the wait for the video, amazing finish! Car looks 👌
Amazing job, the labor! Turning back the clock!
You guys are truly the best detailing company I have ever come across. Really you should call yourselves a restoration company. Love your work. Wish you were on the east coast.
Thanks so much for those kind words Raymond! It means a lot
This is madness. I'm a detailer and thought I had ocd with quality of finish. I'd love to work with you guys just for a week, it'd be so good to go that in depth on a detail. Had to subscribe. ❤
Wow it looks like a brandnew car from the factory. Amazing Job. Respect from Germany.
Great job. I enjoyed every minute of the video! 👍🏿
Stunning job from A to Z ! Perfection 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
What a beautiful car and what a perfect job from you guys! Respect!
Bravo everyone. What a fantastic job, bumper to bumper.
The best detailing i've ever seen. Wow!
The car looks like brand new! Amazing job done🤩
Remarkable --- 1988 BMW looks great !! I owned a 325E 1987 BMW back in the day like 30 years ago and cleaned it up -- loved that car, ran so nice and looked great charcoal color 4 door tan leather inside --- automatic
Wow what a lovely job! Artists! Well done.
Wow! Ur attention to detail is insane! Stunnnnning!
Amazing work, guys.
Amazing job guys😲 , it looks like factory fresh 🔥🔥
You are great artists guys!! All the best!
It didn't even look that before, but now it looks better than brand new. Fantastic job
We DOUBLED the value of this BMW by paying QUADRUPLE its value in parts and labour! 😆
All jokes aside, this has to be the best restoration out there! Stunning result! Even better than the day it went out the factory..
Perfect Job Guys 🤙🏻 what a beautiful Car. A dream.
Now its a museum piece. Truly stunning guys. 🤩👍
10 out of 10 for the detailing, wow! 1 small recommendation, is turn your music volume down slightly, it's just a tad too loud
When I tell people I want to be a detailer, this is what I mean. Some day in the future I strive to do work like this on cars like this
Its all possible my friend. We all started at the beginning 🫡🙌🏽
You guys take detailing to a new level.
🫡
Incredible work! The old E30 was my first car. It was not anything near as nice as this car. I think if I got this beautiful car today I would cry. Such an amazing job - it looks like new.
SICK JOB!! Awesome you guys!!
hard work pays off
Proper job guys, it looks like new, I've never seen a BMW E30 that clean , there normally rotten

Gotta respect the amazing attention to details and restoring the car with great passion and hard work ❤ ✌️
Wow..outstanding work
The dry ice cleaning felt like God decended from Heaven to give me a kiss on the cheek. Probably the most satisfying thing I've ever seen.
Now i remember !?...Bird On a Wire ! Insane....Great work !
This is art...next level!
True definition of restoration
Amazing work boys
I was being judicious with my like. The seatbelt press button repaint got me smashing it!
