Extreme Yellow for this BMW M3 Restoration!

[@Florin_Bolocan]

Absolutely stunning work! Thank you for your dedication and thank you to your customers who really appreciate and value your work.

[@highest-fi]

Absolutely astonishing the level of detail and understanding you show of dealing with the corrosion under the vehicle. What an expert. It’s truly satisfying to see someone so good at what they do 👍

[@philrob110]

Incredible work as ever

[@RedishMotorsportbmw]

Thanks Phil, looking forward to doing a unique panel repair/replacement on yours soon!

@@RedishMotorsportbmw Likewise! Be good to do this major part of the restoration.

[@tomtrammel]

Would love to see more detail on the actual work to get the car to these milestone points you go through. Love the work and always makes me want the best for my M3!

[@RedishMotorsportbmw]

Thanks Tom, this is something we're actively trying to find ways to improve on. Hopefully more timelapse content as a next step. Thanks for the comment.

I wish there was someone like you in Australia I could take my car to. Spectacular work, I have a Phoenix Yellow also.

[@dimaspascua3158]

Wish you were stationed in the US! You guys do very detailed restoration work!! Very clean and tidy!! Love the before and after results!

[@dillanmistry]

Thank you for your enlightenment of knowledge, this helps me a lot with my dream build for an e30 touring, I want the best for it and going for a full restoration stripping it bare to bone and dipping it in the liquids and completely rust preventing, I didn’t know the proper full job way was to strip the car to its bare shell although, a restoration like this seems like the adequate minimum as it’s better treated then left to rust. Also as the e46 is in correlation to the e39 I would also imagine they have the same alike corrosion problems today so talking care of them now will save them for the future generations to come. Great channel ❤

[@Az88-]

Another great video. I agree with the comments about pricing. Yes you may scare some people away, but you may also have a lot of potential customers who would think “ actually that’s within my budget” as viewers we aren’t expecting exact pricing but a rough guide I think would compliment your videos well 👍🏼

[@darrenboston342]

Excellent work James as standard from you guys👌 Hope your all well down there in Bristol🤔 Daz (F1)

[@colinmorsley2545]

Next time can we see all the work done to the Jacking points . Would like to see the metal cut out and the new reinforcing plates you fit.

[@RedishMotorsportbmw]

Will do Colin. New Redish product intro video coming v soon. Thanks.

[@stevenhunter5799]

Nederman SB750 will clear out those rust pitting areas It's a vacuum blaster. Perfect for spot treatments without making loads of mess. It tidied up the underside of my 2004 beautifully 👌 Ain't cheap, but well worth it if you'll use it often!

[@RedishMotorsportbmw]

Thanks for thinking of us and sharing the info.

[@YootubeUK]

Very nice upload as always, I do like phoenix gelb on the M3's.

[@nickwillobey2205]

I agree with the other guys. What are the likely costings of a similar job on a 2005 E46?

[@stevendavies373]

Amazing work

[@MikeRegan-er9fi]

What process are you using to remove rust? Is it laser, dry ice or the combination of the two? Amazing work!

[@BastianKH]

Amazing work as always. 👌

[@RedishMotorsportbmw]

Thank you so much 😀

Once i graduate medical school i hope to have this done to mine😍😍😍

[@eoghanobrien6980]

Love watching your videos, keep up the great work! I have an E46, and I am wondering do you sell those kits you mentioned for the jacking points? I couldn't find them on your website. If you do, would they work for a regular E46 or is it only for M3s?

[@pawineepusri9111]

Luvely! ❤

[@adelonmachina792]

@redishmotorsportbmw Can Line-X or raptor bedliner be applied to the BMW E46 undercarriage, will it make the undercarriage more durable?

[@rinx34]

What material did you use to coat this underbody? What all layers you applied starting from bare metal?

[@robster6868]

There’s a lovely mint manual example at my main dealer in Toulouse up for 46,000€ on 75,000 kms,cars are way more expensive in France,maybe a good investment for someone.

[@a1topdog]

@redish I thought you announced that you stopped doing full underside resto's a few years back?

[@RedishMotorsportbmw]

Hi a1, yes we did put them on hold mid-2018 and had a 6 month break, but demand has always been high so in early 2019 we opened the diary again.

[@Thereal_lee96]

Use dry ice detailing to make the old parts look new 😁dry Ice detailing is so satisfying to watch.

Gives us a ball park figure of the price please.

[@isaacbenjamin389]

Would love to do this to mine however I’m sure this is big money. If I was going to keep it forever I would do it however I think there’s a 997 in the future for me after the M3. Amazing job!!!

[@GJS19]

Really wanna know a rough price 🤩

[@V8freaks]

Nice Resto! What product did you use to create that wonderful "lizard skin" effect on the underbody? It looks awesome! I'm restoring an Mercedes W126 and am looking for such a finish! Greetings from Germany, Marlon

[@YootubeUK]

I'm guessing a sprayable coating like "Gravitex" out of a shultzgun, then primed and painted. It does look nice!

[@peterroberts652]

Possibly Raptor , by Upol Goes on from a schultz gun but is colour-able with the cars colour paint Dries to a very tough, durable finish

Looks amazing…how much are talking for the work you’ve done on this car?

[@studiomwg]

Anyone have a map with part numbers of the underbody and wheel arch plugs? Parts diagrams are useless.

[@PompeyMatt17]

amazing work....ironically those shocks would be an MoT advisory straight away...all the money the guy has spent, a another few hundred quid on shocks would have finished it off.

[@chrisg4rr377]

Thats something you could easily do at a later date

[@davog1946]

The dampers would not be an advisory.

[@stephenrichardson6105]

Watched one the other week. Basically the same job, think front wheel arches got done. A lot of new parts fitted In the comment was mentioned it cost the guy £31k

[@chrisg4rr377]

If you have to ask the price of it, then you can't afford it

[@PompeyMatt17]

about 40k I reckon

[@thisdoesnotseemtomeetourna3356]

Costs more than what it's worth. (Unless you are doing it yourself) You will never get the chassis fully clean of rust.

[@mik3ymomo]

Owner should have gone the whole way with this. Those rusty bits just ruin what looks like a beautiful restoration. Open that wallet Car owner!

On those pitted areas , you need a spot sandblaster Rust stabilisers/neutralisers don't really work in my experience, it always comes back
