The Final Dakar E36 M3 Assembly & Detailing

[@Voges2023]

One thing I learned from white details when you get polish stuck in the lettering on lenses, you can take a little bit of polish on a microfiber and go over the lettering by hand and it works like a charm.

[@groundcontrol6876]

Now *that's* a clean E36. I swear I can smell a Y49 CRX just by looking at that sweet, pale Dakar yellow. One of my all time favorite car colors that not just any car can rock.

[@ChromaticGarage]

Hahahab I agree man! Very few body lines can take on this particular hue. Thanks for watching!

[@cleanwagen]

The culmination of a lot of effort. Well worth it 👍🏼

[@ChromaticGarage]

The only way to do it. Thanks man!

[@Whynotgarage]

It looks absolutely beautiful! I’m not a yellow person but on this car it works, fantastic job as always!!

[@ChromaticGarage]

Thanks man! Unfortunately I’d take yellow on just about any car haha😭

[@henrycollins2478]

Love the dakar e36! I’ve been waiting so long for it to be cold enough for me to wear the chromatic hoodie I got. Finally feels like it’s cooling off.

[@ChromaticGarage]

Heck yeah Henry! Summer heat isn’t good for anyone or anything 😔

[@michaelrichards2024]

Placed my order for the 'I WASH MY CAR TEE'. I'll be repping the Chromatic merch at all the car meets across England. 💂‍♂

[@ChromaticGarage]

You’re the man Michael! Best of luck in England 🤝

[@philipps90]

The music, the location, the guy behind the camera, the car, the paint job, the new merch, what do you expect, this video is a masterpiece! Keep it up Chromatic

[@ChromaticGarage]

I really appreciate that man! Thank you. Hope you have a great weekend 😊

[@grattidude]

Loved every second of this. Your M3 is perfection.

[@ChromaticGarage]

Glad you enjoyed it bro!

[@AkselMagnus]

This is not the typical scenario where the car looks better on camera, I know for certain that the car looks so much better in person. Well done!!

[@ChromaticGarage]

Haha it really does man. I was very surprised the first time I brought it outside. Thanks for watching!

[@nautospavn]

Great video, and great advice

[@Mr.SparkleOG]

Quite the technique applying that solution finish man so im gonna have to steal that from you. Always have loved the attention to detail you put in man! The new merch looks fire! Great music, excellent camera work and of course the car turned out mint! 👌👍

[@ChromaticGarage]

Thank you so much man! Glad people are picking up on the same stuff that I really enjoy. Much love!

[@Audi_ChriS4]

[@dillanmistry]

After watching this e36 being detailed the whole way through, I must say Dakar yellow and techno violet are the best colours for the e36 m3, especially the Dakar yellow, it looks so serene

[@ChromaticGarage]

I completely agree with this statement. Doesn’t get much better then yellow and purple ☺️

[@kai_291]

Man what a journey but the outcome is beautiful, a timeless classic these E36 M3 awesome work really appreciate you taking us along.

[@ShineYourLightDetailing]

How did you like the Vonixx V-Paint? Cool video!! ❤

[@ChromaticGarage]

It’s awesome man! I sprayed some water on it yesterday and it performs great!

[@rice-rocket]

Top work and attention to detail!! The results are mega! Just searching for that trim restorer and the applicator you used, here in Britain. Keep up the great work. All the best, John.👍

[@ChromaticGarage]

Thank you man! Most of the detail shops here have it in stock. Applicator was just from Home Depot ☺️

[@m3estoril]

Beautiful work as always, but this video in particular just felt so right... what an end result. Amazing job!!

[@ChromaticGarage]

Thank you man! Glad to have it all back in one piece 😀

[@kc550]

Nice video, and overall job on that restoration. I'm just too distracted by the mismatched paintwork and sprayed lower grill (should be black). Also, the black exterior trim shouldn't be glossy, but rather matte, as per the factory finish. Just nitpicking! Very peaceful to watch.

[@ChromaticGarage]

Thank you man! There are quite a few incorrect pieces of information in this comment but I’m not the one to care about this stuff 😭

[@kc550]

@ChromaticGarage my bad! I have a 3.2 M3 and failed to realize that some of the 3.0 M3s came with paint matched bumper grilles, and it seems their trim was in fact semi gloss, exactly like you've restored it. Seems like you do care about this stuff!! 😅🍻

[@kairikkola]

E36 coupe is sexiest car ever made. That's why I have 318is orientblue with white leather in my garage. With style 29 BBS wheels. Of course same condition than yours. 🙂

[@ChromaticGarage]

Haha I couldn’t agree more man! It is the best. Orient is a stunning colour, I’m sure it looks fantastic.

[@alpinablau]

Your videos are just awesome! Hopefully we will see you doing the same on an Alpina B12 one day… Greetings from Germany✌🏼

[@ChromaticGarage]

Thank you so much man! I can only wish! Much love from Canada!

[@wimdepril6920]

Bought an E36 316i new back in ‘94. Put the entire M technik kit on it except for the M3 rearview mirrors and rims. It looked so beautiful but of course it didn’t drive like a real M3. Why oh why did I not pick an E36 M3 up when they could be had for 15k euro or less here in Belgium. Excellent job restauring this beauty sir!

[@ChromaticGarage]

Thanks man! I feel the same! Getting the dream alpine white sedan M3 seems to be like more of a financially unfriendly task each month. But let’s hope, for us, for everyone!

[@alexrettke6713]

[@ChromaticGarage]

I don’t think it will be for sale.

[@maverick4679]

How did the solution finish turn out on the roof/window trim? Or do you think it would be better painting it? My e36 has the same fading yours had.
