BMW E46 M3 Blacked out Headlights - DIY Plasti Dip Mod with one can of $6.00

[@juniorallicock8581]

Love your content...the halos look so much better when it was reflecting off the chrome accents...but its your choice...keep up the good work.

[@AmelsGarage]

Thank you so much, i appreciate the positive feedback. Good thing it’s plasti dip so down the road, I can just peel it off and go back to OEM. Thank you.

[@TheG60528XiJinPing]

This looks better than most aftermarket headlights.

[@AmelsGarage]

I agree, it makes the front end look very aggressive.

[@soulanswear-re7hf]

looks amazing

[@MR20MR]

Where did you purchase the hood grill ? It looks good too

[@AmelsGarage]

It’s oem, i just wrapped it with 3D dry carbon vinyl.

[@amdany1357]

Do you have a link for your headlights and the angel eyes too

[@AmelsGarage]

They are Depo Brand. I got them off eBay long time ago. www.ebay.com/itm/125520914332?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=BN2RGv-fR9O&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=75mE19X-QiG&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Theses lights look really good I also have an E46 M3 I’m looking to get some angel eyes done on my car

[@redskizedski7336]

Good job, looks very classy!

[@AmelsGarage]

Thank you.

[@ggua92722]

Hey, it looks really nice but here’s the problem, you lost your high beam lights because they’re not going to shine with the same intensity with the chrome housing. But anyways for those of us doing only city driving, they’re hardly used. I like your garage, it’s so clean. Great job.

[@AmelsGarage]

That’s correct, my high beams were terrible to begin with, but also helps me with living in Las Vegas, no lights needed 😅. Check out little later, I’m going to build new ones from scratch, both high and low beam will be projected. Thank you so much.

[@ggua92722]

@@AmelsGarage Sounds good. I’ll be checking later for this new mod. BTW just subscribed to your channel. Thanks and Happy New Year 🎊🎆

[@ggua92722]

@@AmelsGarage So are you planning to do a mod on the high beams and replace them with projectors? I don’t know if that’s what you’re planning to do but I’m aiming for that idea in the near future.

[@ruthless4120]

Did the light outcome change in any way ? And why use plastic dip and not normal paint spray ?

[@AmelsGarage]

Yeah, i can’t use my high beams, which i don’t need in Vegas anyways. Plasti dip so if i decide I’m tired of it i can peel it and go back to oem look.

[@8MWm3e4b]

It looks awesome,...but, do you see anything at night?

[@AmelsGarage]

I actually do, cuz my projectors are really good and there is no plasti dip on. Thanks

[@EagleClaws1995]

A year later... How's the plasti dip holding up?

[@AmelsGarage]

Still great, no discoloration or rips. Happy with it, thanks for asking.

[@EagleClaws1995]

@@AmelsGarage good to know, thanks! I'm thinking of doing the same, have you had to add a coat since then or any adjustments? I looks super duper nice! You did an amazing job

[@AmelsGarage]

@@EagleClaws1995 no coats added, everything is the same and as well no fade or wrinkles from heat.

[@EagleClaws1995]

@@AmelsGarage thanks! I think I'll go with the route once the weather warms up in Canada 😅

[@briancrisp9469]

Can I ask what halo lights you are using ?

[@AmelsGarage]

They are the depo headlights, so it came with it. I’m not sure what they use. I can tell you that they are bright. But will be making my own double projector headlights with these. www.ebay.com/itm/4Pcs-Angel-Eyes-Light-Kit-For-BMW-E46-Car-Headlight-LED-CCFL-Halo-Rings-Lamp-US-/363224348465?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l6249&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0

@@AmelsGarage thanks for the response . I have been looking around for just a halo like that and haven’t found one yet . I like the color and look of it.

[@buljugijaa]

Amazing work, love it 😊

[@AmelsGarage]

Thanks 😊

[@holmesghassemi]

Great idea. What color/finish plastidip did you go with and how any coats did it take? Thanks for the video.

[@AmelsGarage]

I went flat black with 3 coats. The ticket the plasti dip the easy is to take off in the future

[@jonathanreinke9392]

Nice visual upgrade. I want to do the same for my M3. I purchased black kidney grills a couple of years ago that do not fit well / need zip ties to make them tight. They still don't look as just right. Your grills apear to fit predict. Any recommendations on aftermarket black or carbon kidney grills that are a fit for a 2001 M3? Thanks for any advice.

[@AmelsGarage]

My kidney grills are oem, i just wrapped them with carbon fiber vinyl. Honestly the oem parts are the best, you can wrap it in flat black or you can use plasti dip on it. Plus it’s inexpensive.

[@jonathanreinke9392]

Great advice! Some of my stock chrome kidney grills clips broke when I removed them as the plastic was super old. I will plan to order some new oem ones and coat them. Thanks!

[@datboiidion]

What color grey is on that on your car?

[@AmelsGarage]

It’s called Silbergrau Metallic

[@yeetbox5843]

Very cool video. How did you do it with turn signals? They seem to be tinted/painted too.

[@AmelsGarage]

thank you. I bought them smoked off eBay.

[@brendam455]

Why no description where you buy?

[@AmelsGarage]

I bought the plasti dip at Home Depot.

[@brendam455]

@@AmelsGarage the lights 😂

[@AmelsGarage]

Lol 😂 same. I got it on eBay. But they are actually going bad, i think my projectors are burnt, i kinda went from 35W hid to 55W hid and i might of screwed it up. However i will be getting oem replacement headlights from there as well h1 mini projector and will retro fit it my self. Will go with quad projectors.

[@Nathan_Johnson7723]

Just be careful when peeling off the Plasti dip because when I peeled mine off it pulled off all the chrome paint

[@AmelsGarage]

I messed up my interior trim with carbon vinyl wrap, it took of the clear on it. But on headlights i will be building new set with dual projectors since the one i have now are kinda dull in brightness.
