Thanks for being a part of the story, you did an awesome job and I appreciate the friendship through it all!

[@sriv6714]

Such an inspiring piece of content.

[@justinbuice]

Thanks man! I owe a lot of my own success to you 🙏

[@B58_Nick]

You both are my big brothers when it comes to my e90 335i, thank you for all the help over the years ❤️

[@sidneylee3598]

You deserved more subscribers Brian , you put so much effort on making videos keep it up ❤

[@fizo007]

🤙💯

[@sadatx101]

Kies is one of the reasons I bought an F30. There were enough videos on doing upgrades and changes. I've bought tons of stuff from Kies because of it. Dude is a nice person and I appreciate it.

[@AutomotiveTherapy]

I remember back in 2018 watching every upload you made Justin and then discovering Bryan’s channel shortly after that. Both of your guys growth has been monumental for the bmw creator scene, I eventually began my journey on KZbin because of both of your channels. The story telling and images were perfectly laid out in this video, Bryan’s story is inspiring! I met him a year ago and he is truly a nice guy to be around, genuine and kind with all that he does. He deserves every bit of his success! Nice job on this video 🙌

[@justinbuice]

Thank you for the kind words and I’m glad that we could be an inspiration! Bryan is a great guy!

[@the_batmobile0.4]

@@justinbuice Hey Justin, can you make a video on cleaning the engine bay without damaging anything electric.

[@mekkehead2321]

All you 3 makes me want to move to the us XD

[@rg6982]

Bryan is genuinely one of the best guys on KZbin So happy for his success, lucky you're his good mate😃

[@justinbuice]

It’s been a pleasure knowing him and working with him!

[@3rkowtf669]

I am following Brian and watching his videos since his white f30 328 days, as a fellow Bmw enthusiast since the 90s his DIY videos helped a lot on many occasions, I never met him but I can say that I’m proud of what he’s accomplished and it’s only a blessing to be surrounded with positive people like him and for that he’s got my full support and respect. Well done, Justin. 👍

[@p4yfu]

This isn’t your normal type of content but that’s what made it even more special. Hope you have a chance to make more like this!

[@justinbuice]

I appreciate that! Hopefully I’ll have the opportunity to do more like this

[@AlexMelendez]

Big inspiration, both you & kies were a huge part in me rebuilding my f30 335i. Much love to both you guys

[@justinbuice]

Glad we could help 😁

[@Metoy3r]

Both of you guys are such inspirations to the the BMW community and I know you have inspired lots of enthusiasts including myself. I enjoy making KZbin videos and really got the motivation from both you and Bryan. I love that I got to see both of you grow over the years. Much respect and love to you guys

[@justinbuice]

Im glad we could be an inspiration 💪

[@legacydriven]

Awesome representation of the character that Bryan has. Great guy, and company, that has incredible values. Nice job Justin 👍🏼

[@justinbuice]

Thank you! He’s been a great friend!

[@knockoutlam]

Ive been a long time lurker but I gotta say man your journey and also Byran's journey is incredible, you guys keep up the good stuff

[@justinbuice]

Thanks! That means a lot. Hopefully we have more opportunities to collaborate in 2023

[@illestprincessforeve]

It’s so cool to see the friendship that has grown between you and Bryan that was all made possible from KZbin! So cool to hear his story!

[@TheSundaeDrive]

Don't know how I missed this one. So awesome and crazy how this has grown from the humble backup cameras. I can't believe how long we lasted in that small garage but it was so much better than your apartment parking lot 😂 great edit Justin

[@timothybrouillette6479]

Awesome to the both of you. I have followed Kies for the past 6 years.

[@jg_media9]

Great video JB! Bryan's story is truly an inspiration I know I can say personally he has been a huge inspiration for me and I'm super grateful to be able to work directly with him. He's truly the man 👌

[@mduduzibonganicowanmanana5404]

Wow....simply inspirational, it's amazing how humble you remain. Kudos to you.🤝🏽

[@clubracer6]

Wow, great story. As an employer myself, I absolutely appreciate his outlook on this employees. I too recognize they are our most important customer.

[@S12Gaming]

The fact he started this from passion to help people with bmw 3 series to owning an entire business.

[@Promisedland_garage]

Inspiring, humbleness takes you far in life,just helping others,God and life rewards the rest back to you

[@nathanraffel9951]

This video was so amazing, Justin! I have been watching Bryan for a few years now and he made it possible for me to do what I wanted with my F30. I knew his story and what he has accomplished but this video was just so great to watch. Thank you both so much for what you do for the community and everyone around you. Keep it up!

[@VoltageCtrlRtv]

Great story, it's good to see people build real connection, friendships and careers through these platforms! wishing you all many more years of success!

[@justinbuice]

Thank you! It’s cool that social media has created these opportunities that didn’t exist even 10 years ago

[@edgy1rocks]

We bought our first BMW in 1981. We were excited then and have remained excited to this day that we have an enthusiast’s car and not just basic transportation. It makes going anywhere/everywhere a lot more fun. Thanks for bringing your enthusiasm to this marque. I hope I never become so old or jaded that I quit caring about the trip being as interesting as the destination!

[@justinbuice]

Well said! That's what differentiates BMW from so many other manufacturers.

[@rmuckluck]

Awesome video / documentary. I have watched both your channel and Kies Motorsports for a while. Very cool to hear the back story behind how they came to be!

[@ashleymiller3841]

Literally I watch both your channel as well as the Kies Motorsports channel. I learned of Kies Motorsports through this channel. Thank you all for the life saving and budget friendly information and ways to keep our BMW's running at optimum ability! I currently have an issue with my 2010-335, it's a few miles shy of 90,000 miles. I've been getting, what I have deemed every owners favorite iDrive warning ⚠️ (I'm obviously being very sarcastic lol), the classic half engine icon followed by Engine Malfunction, Reduced Performance. It tells me I do not have to stop but to proceed with caution. I recently just changed the glow plugs and module as well as purchased all the stuff to do the EGR/DPF delete/removal, straight exhaust pipe and swirl flap covers. We decided to use the endoscope to check out some areas of the engine area and the amount of soot build up gives the appearance as though the DPF was just for decoration and never sprayed any fluid what so ever... My question is while we wait for the EGR/DPF delete/removal parts/kit/software to arrive should I try to clean up as much of the soot build up as possible or just leave it because with the delete it'll take care of a lot of the issues I'm having now... Ohhhhh I just had a blonde moment totes spaced to mention that my 335 is a 335d diesel... I'm sure you knew that immediately when I mentioned the glow plugs and EGR/DPF... Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thank you before hand for everything you've helped with already! 🤗

[@maximum2753]

What a great guy (both of you). It’s so cool to see how your altruic motivation (plus hard work and taking risks) is so rewarding. -Side Note, those murdered out front grills make the car(s) look SO much better.

[@josuefuentes3681]

You guys are the only reason i keep my disassembled 335i(2011), in hopes that some day i have the courage to fix it. The cars are amazing just some people that drive them are not the nicest… specially the ones that sell them and work for the dealerships😅 you guys went from e chassis to f, to Gs within these 6s years. Boy does time fly!

[@CrazyOneToo]

Exactly. I tell my friends if you don't like BMW cars that tells me you have never driven or owned one. Maybe you could add the links for the channels he mentioned.

[@mosmicke]

This was a beautiful story and I'm glad you uploaded it. It's fun to see him talking about you and what a nice guy you are, because honestly, I'm not even a BMW owner, and I still watch your content mostly because you seem like such a good person.

[@michaelpolissky]

Awesome, been following you guys for a few years now...thanks for all you do!!!

[@user-ob1lz1ts5e]

Great stuff!! I was all in the screen lol, and my ride is well maintained and a hell of alot faster because of you both!! I thank you very much and please keep up the good work!!

[@jacksampson7711]

I found Bryans channel first and was amazed at how fast he blew up. Great success story...love both channels guys.

[@jarloes]

You’re both really down to earth and seem truly genuine so wish you guys all the success in future.

[@justinbuice]

Thank you! We appreciate that!

[@cesarj0879]

Very inspirational story that also became a platform for good works! All the best to you Bryan, Justin and Kies Motorsports.

[@Silver-Buchanan]

Amazing video! Seeing Kies growth as well as the relationship between both is amazing.

[@justinbuice]

Thank you!

[@dennybrows9916]

Great video man. Wanted something like this to come out bc I know Brian is a hustler. Big props and thank you for everything you post too. Lots of love coming from an n55 f32 ❤❤

[@jbrown7403]

Very nice video and story. I’ve been a big fan of Bryan’s videos from day one of my F82 ownership three years ago. The DIY videos have truly been invaluable to myself and countless others 👍

[@bxblaze95]

Kies videos inspired me to pull the trigger on my G20 M340i. Can wait to start following their tutorials as i go through my project journey.

[@justinbuice]

Nice! Enjoy the car 😎

[@CorbinWilliams]

Such a great video! Thanks for making this Justin. Both you and Bryan are legendary in the BMW space and I appreciate you guys so much for the content you make for all of us! Would be awesome to see more videos like this on other BMW content creators and how they got started in the space.

[@justinbuice]

Thanks for the kind words! I’d love to do more videos like this in the future

[@brianfortenberry1012]

Thanks for doing this Justin. Enjoyed it a lot. Nice to hear the origin of one of my favorite channels on you tube. Thanks To Bryan for helping us out. I just bought a BMW 3 series a couple of years ago and I get a lot of help from the channel. I try and buy as many parts I can from Kies. God bless you both. I look forward to every new video. They are always enjoyable and informative.

[@justinbuice]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@hayk903]

Excellent video, found this to be really motivating! Shows with hard work, perseverance and commitment, you can achieve anything.

[@justinbuice]

Thanks! It’s been cool to watch Bryan and his company grow the past few years!

[@Beachboyig]

I remember watching Bryan’s original f30 328i videos wean I had no bmw now I have one because of him

[@arov235]

Great video Justin!! Such a great journey to watch through the years. Even better since Kies is local to me. Can’t wait to see their continued success!

[@justinbuice]

Thanks! Are you coming to the Kies show in July?

[@steveng5503]

For me the fact that Kies was created and developed from scratch is amazing. I’ve seen similar business entities setup shop and became another stagnant supplier and that’s it. Well done to all those involved. The meet-ups, developments, charity is sure progression, positive customer involvement and exciting to see. A breath of fresh air. BMW take note! Best wishes guys. 👌✌️👍🇬🇧

[@justinbuice]

It really is a great case study for e-commerce and social media marketing. I’ve personally worked for companies who were reluctant to use social media, didn’t want to be on KZbin, didn’t want to take advice from anyone under 40. His strategy of using free platforms like KZbin and Instagram not only saved him advertising dollars, but allowed him to build a tight knit fanbase.

[@MinMinPlayz.]

So glad u released this! Heartwarming car story, it's really hard finding vids for my 328d. It's like the car doesn't exist😅

[@Mitrofanvlad]

just search for 320d, same car everywhere else in the world

[@Finstatube69]

This is quality content. probably the best video I've seen from your channel, and I've been here for years. Keep it up 💪

[@justinbuice]

Thanks! That means a lot!

[@lightbender1622]

I’ve been enjoying your tuning tips for a while and had no idea how involved you are in helping worthy causes. You and Brian and fantastic examples of how small business and individuals work together to succeed not only in their commercial mission but to better their entire communities. Keep on truckin, boys. Keep on truckin.

[@justinbuice]

Thank you for the kind words! 🙏

[@lxiong1077]

Kies (Brian) keep doing great things! I remember watching your early videos to where you are now! 👊

[@SuperCroc97]

Honestly, this was such a well made video. I love hearing people's story and this was a very well planned video. I genuinely think you should make more of these!

[@justinbuice]

I appreciate that! I had a lot of fun making this and hopefully I’ll have more opportunities like this in the future

[@CalebNHammond]

Been watching since 2017, when I had my E90 and then got my F30 and now G20. I’ve enjoyed watching you grow your channel and the things I’ve learned from watching yours and Bryan’s channel. Cheers!

[@justinbuice]

Glad we can help 😁

[@marcovanhoven6405]

[@peterworoch3932]

[@justinbuice]

Thank you! That means a lot to me ☺️🙏

[@richardaguirre3719]

I don't know who is behind these guys upbringing, but big time shout-out to the parent, grandparents, coach, teacher, etc.., that influenced these young men to be a beacon with their work.

[@justinbuice]

🙏

[@DJAdo80]

Although I’m no longer an F30 owner, I am super inspired to DIY any car thanks to Kies and JB’s channel. Many many thanks to you guys for the content!

[@justinbuice]

Glad we can help, and thanks for sticking around!

Obeying the Lord will typically bear unbelievable fruit here on earth. That being said, the heavenly reward is greater. Love the positivity and walking out of the gospel while working.

[@WindmillFighter]

Mad respect Brian, thank you Justin.

[@JohnTorreyblahblahblah]

Great Video Justin! Keep up the good work!

[@justinbuice]

Thank you!

[@kolokta]

Your channel Justin inspired me to get my E90 330i back in 2017 - then watching your videos when you brought your F30 and the videos you have done with Kies, it made the choice for me to trade my 30i for my F30 340i....save to say both of your channels have helped me with mods and maintenance on my cars over the years 😍 also please please bring back content on the FR-S i miss it on your channel 🥲

[@justinbuice]

I'm glad we could help! More FR-S content coming soon :)

[@pamelaramdat8321]

Love it bro!! Keep doing more of it

[@justinbuice]

Thank you!

[@bilbofr4ggins646]

Nicely done man! I think every enthusiast wonders how some of these great vendors get their starts. Propsto Bryan for taking the leap.

[@justinbuice]

Thank you! It was fun helping him tell his story through this video

[@UnixGoldBoy]

You are all such great guys! Thank you!

[@AlbertCLee]

I was one of Bryan's rear camera install customers. He drove all the way from South Jersey to do the job on my E92 in a parking garage just outside of NYC. Glad to be a tiny piece of the Kies journey!

[@justinbuice]

That’s awesome! It’s crazy to see how much they’ve grown in such a short time

🙏

[@mblydenvlogs]

Hey Justin I can't believe this video wouldn't fit in. Why wouldn't it? It's related to bimmers dude! LoL I've always loved your videography. Nice job on this documentary! Keep up the good work. Im on my 6th Bmw car and I'm looking forward to getting a BMW SUV next.

[@justinbuice]

Thanks I appreciate that! Sometimes people complain when I post anything that’s not a DIY 😂
