I know it feels a bit weird for you, but I'm glad you're starting to do ad reads. I know it takes a bit away from the cohesiveness of the video but the money you make from them should really help the channel out cash flow wise (especially for the upcoming project!). Us viewers are used to them in everyone else's videos anyway, so it's not really a huge deal for us.

[@PedroWeissach]

Agreed! As long as it’s not an ad read for UserBenchmarks 🤓

[@wjeurs]

​@@PedroWeissachor betterhelp 😂

[@turbo_brian]

​@@wjeursmeh, I skip them all the same either way. Money's money.

The progress bars donut does for their ads are a godsend

[@TheViken777]

Bro get outta here Video where the most liked comment is about an ad in this video, what an actual f0k😢😢😢😢 2024 sucks

[@mwcrilly]

Most of my KZbin consumption just plays in the background while I am being productive, wrenching myself or something. Your videos, I make myself a cup of coffee put it up on the living room tv and sit back on the couch. Thanks Mike for putting out quality content every single time.

[@redhenracing2]

Seriously, I do the same thing while driving and use YT as an audiobook, but these I'm constantly looking over like "damn, look at that dry ice" and then I wake up in the median of a Walmart parking lot

[@zappy7393]

Usually these vids come out on a Saturday morning here in Australia. The whole family knows that Saturday morning is Dad's cup of tea and Stance works time on the TV.

[@speedacademy]

From the excellent story telling to the perfect videography, every episode is as engaging the other and we always learn something. Mike you are a master at the craft!

[@504DamnSkippy]

The CEO at BBS America is da man! Meet him at SEMA. Super nice guy and a "REAL" car guy! BBS makes any car look mint! Amazing E36 and great job!

[@Brokeazzajoke]

Am I the only one who wasn’t ready for that fitment shot dropping down the jack🥵

[@AxisPaintworks]

Keep chipping away at the details - glad to have been a part of this project and pumped to see it still looking so good! Crazy it's been 5 years (I think?) since I painted that one.

[@Shiny_Dragonite]

The right wheels make all the difference. I put Motegi MR116s on my Civic and sometimes I just stop and stare and admire it. The headliner was a painful reminder I'm going to learn how to do upholstery and fix my armrests. The stock ones are garbage and that's putting it politely. I dunno why Honda thought a paper-thin layer of ultrasuede on hard plastic was the way to go. As always, I love your videos. They're a constant reminder to me that as frustrating as some of the work I put into my car is, it always makes me smile in the end and that makes it worth it.

[@RealRickCox]

The HRE wheels are nice, but the BBS motorsport wheels you got look great on the car. Love the aggressive stance!

[@dms9289]

I’m happy to see you working on this thing. The fog blanks desperately need to be paint match or actual fog lights. Part of me is disappointed you put the wing on but I get it. I think the wicker bills are a must and removing the risers is also a subtle flex and rarely done. Love both sets of wheels.

[@andyitslit]

Pretty alright E36 I guess. Missing some mirrors

[@SAMotorsport]

Those rollers are just phenomenal! Looks like a huge aesthetic improvement over the HREs, even though I loved the HREs! Looking good Mike!

[@teamphashash]

This my favorite of all your builds. Takes one back to the forum days.

[@cezelipatrick]

The 36 is such a handsome car. Love it and the new wheels are awesome. I love both styles.

[@bryanmauroner3347]

Those BBS’s take it to a new Level Mike 👌❤️🇩🇪 Nice Werk 🫡 Regarding the headliner I was completely blown away that the part is still available. That’s the beautiful part of BMW I love. More BMW content!

[@swade417]

Having ran into valve stem to caliper clearance issues when building wheels it was all i could see happening. Glad to see they were located in the lip and had no issues, car as always looks amazing!

[@Skundlony]

I love that wheels change. I planning change my work meisters S1 for these BBS. Awesome!

[@dumbestoyster]

I think colour match centres would look sick

[@g60force]

YES I did this with my Ex- VW Corrado BBS with midnight purple! Sadly they were 15" when I put a big body kit on I replaced them with 17" Venom cuz I couldn't affort 17" 2 or 3 part BBS (even the regular 1part version)

[@DustinHasVideos]

Nothing to contribute, but when you build something so beautiful I have to engage with the algorithm

[@martinwink2063]

It looks incredible Mike, great job!

[@NickDskate]

I say it all the time but these videos are such a visual experience every time. Everything is shot beautifully, the voice overs keep me engaged and feels like the shots really tell a story. Not only that, but the content is always on point. Absolutely beautiful wheels Mike, one of my favorite e36’s out there

[@CoreySchmick444]

This looks sick, great stuff!

[@Itschrisg96]

This car is gorgeous!! Congrats on it!! You have great vision and skills

[@ssoffshore5111]

I like the silver HRE's that were on there, but the polished BBS's look fire as well! And perfect fitment, well done sir!

[@davidmcdermott3415]

I think that was a great call on the wheels, those look fantastic.

[@NeoAndersonReloaded]

Chrome BBS are classic🎉

[@zlliksddam]

Polished, not chrome.

[@cinebonne]

$1200 to finally complete interior? Nah. $8000 shiny wheels to replace current perfect wheels? Hell yeah.

[@JP-gd1ln]

Sorry bro but HRE over BBS all day every day. Don't get me wrong brand new polished Motorsport BBS are def cream of the crop just BBS are every where even tho 87's are über top shelf it's still yet another BM on BBS... where as HRE are über slept on & even more so the 525's look absolutely phenomenal silver on silver perfectly suiting the e36. Something about the fat 5 spoke just work's beautifully combined w/ the boxy e36 body lines/silhouette not to mention perfectly period correct and last but not least IMO HRE's are some of the only wheels that actually look better with the center caps installed and for those in the know that shield means timeless taste & final point the subtle hint of blue & red of the HRE shield logo adds just the right amount of accent color w/ the silver on silver colorway I know I won't change your mind more so just wanted to praise your HRE setup

[@Edirty6m3_abdul]

Huge motivation, mike is the best man

[@paolonovello1221]

Amazing work Mike on BBS, this is OG stanceworks

[@robin_marriott]

For me the HREs were perfect, something about them just looked right. I’m not a big fan of the finish on the BBS, polished is not really my jam but they’re a cool wheel all the same. Should have gold plated them like the Ronals on Rusty!

[@timmason5230]

Thanks Mike!

[@harpal-kalsi]

I love this car man, makes me miss my old E36 in Madeira Violet.

[@DriftGT86]

---reads out OBD2 codes--- 5x OBD2 codes detected Mike: it's fine

[@38tech]

Just glad to see it being restored and not just turned into a drift missile. Love it.

[@insidershoe]

I have been a fan of this car since the beginning! I would say Perfection achieved!

[@UltimateKlasse]

Looks sooo good!

[@G_Ozare]

I freaking love this car. It's rolling perfection.❤ It's also super rad that you run "JDM" Bride seats in it. 👍

[@christianfrorup1967]

Those BBS wheels are tuff as they are unique and not widely seen on many cars. Looks great!!!

[@MustangManV8]

Looks fantastic

[@violinmiata]

Love it. The HRE wheels looked great. BBS is even better!

[@dan.miller35]

You had me at BBS Motorsport Wheels

[@codreamin]

Love the look. Been waiting on e88s from BBS for over a year now....

[@paulsinnett85]

This car is so cool. I cant wait for my car to look this good. 1 step at a time or rather set of wheels at a time lol

[@harrypapageorge9735]

Looks amazing mate.😉🇦🇺

[@Porsche9174Ever]

Those wheels are sick! They really look awesome!

[@alexelrod242]

I have a car that i relate to you on your e36, its a forever car, i hate it, i have little motivation to touch it, but i love it. Ive also had it since i was 18 in 2008

[@e36boy]

Looks great!

[@astonmoore6126]

I absolutely love that there's a new upload!!!! Thank you Mike ❤❤❤❤

[@divingboardlord]

Those wheels are so gorgeous. The perfect marriage of form and function.

[@tlrhector]

This is that car that got me to follow you. I remember seeing it on a video where you showed it off at SOWO.

[@bleachyberserko4191]

Beautiful, I know it fights you every step of the way but my days is it worth it... Maybe it's less of a fight and more of; the car knows what it wants? Haha Either way, that wheel and tyre combo looks absolutely unreal and utterly sets the entire car off, what a beaut 👌

[@biswabratakundu7337]

Was looking for good E36 content on how to bring back one to life, the videos helps a lot 😊 but the e36 playlist might be missing few videos

[@Darkeiser.7]

Looks mint! Show room worthy. 😊

[@lowdl]

I wasn't feeling it when I saw the rollers but damn they look amazing with he car parked. Well played Mike.

Man your car is awesome, awesome work ! Are the old wheels are for sale ? would be interested for my e36 :p

My I love your ride, it looks bad @$$ with those BBS

[@avmelidor]

Looking forward to more

[@twinturbo1989]

E87s are bananas but the true e36 wheel is the OZ Futura, this is what your HREs reminded me of, I wouldn't be sad to see a set of Futuras in 17 (or Mitos, or PG1s) on there

[@90MinutenLang020Damsko]

Everybody has different taste

[@dntswetdatchnque]

full polish is a lot but so good, especially at night. just did polished e88s on my guards red 6gt3 and its tough.

[@florentgaufreteau3898]

Perfect e36 , like this !! ❤❤

[@FabianKowol]

Please provide high res wallpapers with this car ♥ looks perfect!

[@RNS149]

Love the wheels! and with the interior pieces that you have to wait for it's like the old saying goes: a project car is never finished especially when it's "perfect" we'll wait for you to get em and put em in and all will be right in the world.... until you do something else to it 😅

[@woznaldo]

I also follow Phil Morrison over at DriftWorks UK, who is also a wheel whore. He fitted a set of E88s to his 996 GT3. The impact of your E87s has just as much impact. There’s just something special about these classic BBS designs. They just got it right! I’d like to see something on ‘up sizing’ lips/barrels to make a 17” into an 18”. Your wheels almost look like that already but, I’m not sure if I will still retain calliper clearance? Instant win with these E87s!

[@burtondesign4810]

The e36 looks HARD AF🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@franciscoovejero9773]

wtfffaaa! those bbs! OMG! yeah BB! daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn!

[@SlightlyM3ntal]

Maybe I'm just stuck in the past but I think I like the ACS Type 1's the best on this car. I liked them better than the HRE's, and I prefer them to the E88's as well. I totally understand wanting to change it up though.

[@justingustafson7964]

I love the car and everything you’ve done with one exception, the wheels lol. As a former master BMW tech in the late 90’s - 2000’s, I hold strong on M Contour wheels being the absolute perfect wheel on the e36.

[@stanceworks]

That’s the most insane comment ever left on this channel

[@justingustafson7964]

Yep. That's the look.

[@jsonlangton8682]

AMAZING wheels! I always struggle with the door trim tho just breaks up the car wrong for me in the darker colours from some angles.

[@stoneyface]

those wheels and tires totally make the car

[@archizLV]

Have you thought of putting rear electric windows? I know it’s not that big of a deal, but it is sure nice to open rear windows while driving. Also, I feel so sad and stupid that I sold my last e36 328i Coupe some several years ago that was so dumb and I miss it dearly.😢 Love to watch how someone is taking care if they’re e36 it warms my soul. Someday I will find that e36 I am looking for to fill that hole in my heart and I will never sell it, never!

[@Runneround]

damn dude looks sick

[@Mr-ut7nj]

You should 3D print those pillars and cover them with some cloth!

What timing my e36 is getting painted at the moment can't wait to see it!

[@carllindgren7130]

Just love your content :)

[@philippegelinas3083]

It looks good but IMO the fully polish ACS type 1 was the best looking wheels on your E36.

[@saganworshipper6062]

How does the dry ice blasting affect the materials long term? Is there anything detrimental about it? Thinking about the plastic degradation? I am always weary about cleaning my engine bay with degreaser or other solvents because of the risk of missing a spot when rinsing or something and having it sit on there too long causing corrosion. That said, my engine bay of my E90 definitely needs refreshing so I'm not sure what the best way to go about it is other than hand cleaning each part which is very tedious.

[@clamfroth]

Do you think the dry ice blasting could take the place of traditional walnut blasting the intake valves?

[@mjfx328]

Ha my pillars are messed up too. Theres repair kits out there! Renndition makes them I beleive.

Individual non-m cars have Anthracite headliners/pillars too.
