My EVO's Shelter. What do you think?
I used the Rustoleum garage floor paint kit with the paint chips that you sprinkle after you paint. It costs about $50 and it's an epoxy 2 part paint. It came out great but you have to roll it on thick to get a nice gloss enamel. I painted one side of a 2 car garage and was conservative with the paint and it came out too thin and I have to redo it. The other side I painted thicker and it came out great.
The MITSU symbol was painted on also. From far away it looks like a sticker, but it's not. I used SIX layers of custom matched MITSU red (got the sample from the EVO owners manual)
I had some left over so I did the trim too.

It's is wide enough for one car comfortably, and long enough for almost two. I just put a new CRAFTSMAN project center in along with my shelves, and there is still plenty of room behind and in front of the car.

Looks sweet! I know where you're coming from.....
My Evo lives in style, too!
We spend so much time in the garage that we can't just have it be a "typical" garage. We've done the epoxy floor thing, but went the Home Depot route and I can vouch that stuff is crap from there!! We followed the directions word for word and the s hit still chipped and wore away where the tires rest on it overnight. So, we went with Race Deck flooring and LOVE it. It's not as inexpensive as the epoxy flooring, but we both have always wanted a back & white checkboard floor in the garage so this was the choice for us.
Check out the "tool box" too.....it's really a mini fridge! If ya look, you can really find some cool stuff to make for a cool garage.
