Lets see your garage!!!

I am thinking about redoing my garage and I just wanted some ideas... (if you want to see some badass garages go to corvetteforum.com, those guys spend some serious $$ on there garages)

My humble space (first house, next house is gonna be built to my specs and be awesome, including a lift)

Thats sweet mate your so lucky. I live in Ireland and my evo is parked on my drive all year round. My house is a 4 bed semi detachted house (meaning is joined to another house) and it cost me 506,000 dollars it just goes to show how much we are being ripped off in my country.

Also i imagine in your country 506,000 dollars would buy me a nice house.

that is too clean to be a garage!!

Mine's so full of sh*t that there's barely enough room to put 1 car in it. I need to go on and clean that room out.

My first recommendation for the OP is to head down to The Home Depot and get 2 gallons of Glidden Flat paint. (Should be about 7.50 a gallon) and chose a color. ( I choose a semi-neutral almost dark grey). A paint set with brushes and rollers and go to town painting your drywall. It adds value to your home and will make it look like an additional room to your house. Trust me on this...

Second recommendation (your choice really if you want to do this) is head back to The Home Depot and get their Epoxy floor set in your choice of grey or brown (I think they added more colors recently but don't quote me on that). Then go to town epoxying your floor. This too adds value and looks great.

My third recommendation would be to find some cabinetry that you like and bolt them to the walls. This adds a TON of storage space and makes your garage less clutter looking. Again, value and looks go a long way.

The fourth recommendation would be to get some permanent fluorescent lighting rather than the hanging stuff. Wire this into your garage light so you can turn them on via the light switch.

I hope these recommendations work for you. I can tell you this, while I worked for a Realtor a few years ago, these SIMPLE cheap "mods" will sell a home fast if the male looker/buyer is looking for a man cave.

Cheers-
Erich
