$500 DIY Wrap Is Finished on our Auction BMW E36 M3!

We bought this 1995 BMW E36 M3 from Copart Auction for $2000 4 years ago. We fixed it up and took it on a roadtrip 2 years ago. Now we finished our first car wrap ever using a cheap $500 roll of wrap we bought online. During our wrap journey we found a lot of issues on the car mostly dealing with a bad paint job. We did our best to fix a bunch of the issues and even ended up buying all new seals and trim to refresh our E36. Now that the wrap is finished we can start installing mods and upgrades!

Pretty nice first attempt brother and sister. Great transformation. The ticking is because you started and parked the car over and over, without driving it. Dutch regards Nico.

[@ShopLifeTV]

Thanks Nico!! And yes that ticking will go away after driving for a bit

[@Ionknoboi]

you did an amazing job on the wrap good thinking keeping all the black trim and contrast

[@ShopLifeTV]

Thank You!!

[@likits1999]

You guys are awesome together! With your teamwork, you gys accomplish the craziest tasks. Great job!

[@gordythecreator]

You got that part CORRECT. Anyone expecting a SHOWcar Appearance is FOOLISH. Wrap will look great everytime until you get digging for imperfections.

[@dan1906]

Wut? How is it great if it has imperfections? What the hell are you actually saying (in English)? Your capitalization needs work too.

[@CrazyOneToo]

Looks like an individual color. Looks great. Congratulations

[@ShopLifeTV]

Thanks Alan! It's a very different color, but I love it!

[@CrazyOneToo]

@@ShopLifeTV I prefer different colors. I don't want a car the same as 10 others I see at a meet or whatever. 👍

[@naimjacobs2372]

Glad you guys are back

[@johnnygandy3931]

Great to see you guys again

[@razorrich]

Such a nice transformation. Great work, guys!

[@ShopLifeTV]

Thanks Rich!!

[@michaelblacktree]

Looks good! The black trim is a nice contrast. I agree on the gunmetal wheels. And maybe paint the brake calipers red, for a bit of color.

[@ShopLifeTV]

Thanks Michael! I prefer black calipers unless its a big brake kit or something to draw attention to lol

[@fcknhellmate]

You made me look at M3s again and I can't afford any of them anymore 😅Damn

[@ShopLifeTV]

Lol there's still a few deals out there, you just have to keep looking!

[@C.J_the_Goat]

That poor car didn't deserve this. But you managed to pull it out in the end. Good work not giving up.

[@TheFrenchPug]

Hahahaha

[@964tractorboy]

Good to see you back. And that's a wrap!

[@POP01Blaziken]

Looks sooo clean man! Keep up the good work

[@Wergrun]

Man I got pretty good with car tints today. After having done it 3 times in the past today with four windows I got better by the third one

[@TheFrenchPug]

It's amazing how experience in anything cuts down on job time.

[@am2155]

I gasped when I saw that colour! It looks so good! Good job guys!

[@ShopLifeTV]

Thank you!

Helll yesss best way to end the weekend!! Keep it up guys🔥👌😁

Thanks Thomas!!

Well worth the effort! Looks great 😎

Wish it hadn't taken us so long, hopefully the next wrap goes smoother and quicker lol Thank You!

Awesome vid . You guys are a power couple like me and my wife. BLESSINGS

[@ShopLifeTV]

Thanks Jonathan!

[@Astra8676]

First of all good to see an upload from you guys, you have made that E36 from ugly duckling to a Swan.. kudos to both of you guys. Would like to see some interior work done to it as well. I would wrap the mirror's but that's my opinion....Hopefully you can start back on the E30 again.😁

[@ShopLifeTV]

Thanks man! And yes E30 is on the top of the list before starting any new long projects

[@Astra8676]

@@ShopLifeTV Glad to hear that😁

[@rajvirjohal6753]

Y’all made that look easy!!!

My 1,000+ installs since 1996 are 85%-99%. Hide the imperfections, and then the goal is attained. Professionals hide their's under the car.

[@AnthonyHitmanDarts]

Love the colour, great job guys 👌

[@seanscott7120]

Such a nice color, nice job.

[@NeoAndersonReloaded]

Couples working together!!

Selena is the real deal!

[@gordythecreator]

Hide your DENTED & IMPERFECT body panels with PATTERNS & PRINTS. Avoid solid colors to disguise rough surfaces

[@danielg.2428]

Superb. Very nice colour choice....

[@ShopLifeTV]

Thank You!

[@blackpassenger]

nice work guys. havent been keeping up with you. youre back in south carolina now? no more LA?

[@ShopLifeTV]

Thanks! Back in the Carolinas for now...

[@ManuelFresh100]

Love that color

[@dg7438]

Gray minty green is really nice

[@SamuelCroin]

Spectacular result !

[@jbar100]

good job looks good

[@LogisticHD]

Nice

[@jacoblami1731]

For the sunroof you can probably get away with compounding it so the black is glass smooth at the very least...Then just apply a cheap ceramic coating to seal it. It won't be perfect and it's not going to help the durability of the finish too much but it will look a hell of a lot better in the mean time until you decide to redo that section.

[@TechTokOffical]

I'm pretty sure that seal on the skirt is more important u think. I'm spending the money and keeping my rockers from becoming like everyone else's rockers. Also is it a face-lift? Those aren't oem kidneys so I can't tell. I swapped mine to prefacelift and don't like it now..looking for something different

[@ShopLifeTV]

I agree that it is important, but rust is not a huge issue in our area so not in a rush to get the seal. Yes it is facelift and no they aren't OEM grills, they came with the car

[@f308gtb1977]

Awesome!

[@Eddiesv]

Those wheels wouldn’t look too bad on my e39 wagon

[@HashGoblin1]

Nice job guys looks great! Silver wheels tho w polished lips :P

[@H3YdUD3]

Great work

[@houseofno]

Pastels? Is this a car or bathroom wallpaper. LOL.

[@ShopLifeTV]

Lol better than the backyard black that was on there

I cant wait to wrap my 2 E36’s. By The way i like the color

[@FELIPE8226M]

Looks 🔥🔥🔥

[@BmwMe-uh9sy]

dam that s52 sounds beat, it def needs a rebuild

[@omerkurt9406]

LETS GOOOOOO WE ARE BACKK

[@ShopLifeTV]

Took a little break, even though it didn't feel like a break lol

[@hooptie157]

Guess you gave up on the s54 e30?

[@mrnajee1]

Why not just wrap over the bare metal vs repainting?

[@ShopLifeTV]

Thought about it, but didn't want to risk any rust. Especially with how hard it is to find a decent hood

[@mrnajee1]

@@ShopLifeTV I'm learning about wrapping too, and thought about potential rust also. I also thought that the wrap would protect the metal from rusting as well.

[@corybrown7251]

Pls restore it it’s my dream car

[@nehal8196]

Where's bmw selenas LS swapped e46?

[@Sebebe777]

I need a e36 🙏🙏🙏

[@marklengal9990]

What size roll did you have to get? I really want to try it myself but I still need to understand inlays . I think it turned out great

[@31acruz]

Don't lower it, mine is lowered and it looks stupid. Also don't put blue poly bushings on it, mine has them and they ruin the ride. That decade is known for the ultimate smooth and precise ride, the poly bushings with lowered spring turn it into a cheap tacky Subaru, don't do that to your car it deserves better.

[@ShopLifeTV]

It's currently on eibach coilovers, but definitely needs new dampers all around. Once we get the new wheels ready, then we will drop it a bit to get rid of the fender gap. Function > form

[@Jonnatancruel]

How much wrap was ordered?

[@Ionknoboi]

Y’all gotta 2j swap that e36

[@ShopLifeTV]

It will eventually get a swap, but it's running and driving right now so we will focus on other projects lol

[@Ionknoboi]

@@ShopLifeTV that’s true yeah well just giving a heads up that if it ever breaks down you do the swap it would make great content tbh lol I would watch all the videos

[@funfun5656]

Wrapping is harder and inferior to painting change my mind
