    Default Just another garage......

    Been wanting to do a garage renovation for the past 3 homes I've owned, but never made it happen until now. One day I just walked out to the garage, looked around, and started by moving all the crap into boxes. I did everything myself, except for the cabinet installation, and am pretty happy with the outcome. Other than having some more custom signs made, I think I've done all I can with it.

    Before I got started. And there were even more crappy shelves in place before I took this pic.





    Nearly have all the crap off the walls.


    Started the painting. Front and back walls went Black, with the side walls finished in a silver gray color.





    Painted backside of garage door in a checker board pattern


    Flooring started.





    Diamond plate crown molding ;-)


    Halogen track lighting and first of custom signs mounted (the Lambo sign was mounted front and center at this point because I had my Lambo at the time)





    Cabinets installed.


    New sign to take place of Lambo sign ;-)








    The reason for the new sign.











    Other than to have a few more custom signs made, this is how it sits today.
    EARNED, AND NOT GIVEN....

    You went from a very average and boring garage to a unique and awesome one, great job. I particularly like the black and silver combination on the ferrari wall.

    Love it!

    What type of flooring is that? hard to do on your own? (self install)

    Looks like a fun project for a weekend.

    Enjoy

    I would venture a guess the floor is Race Deck. The power of DIY, the entire project came out fantastic.
