Default Garage Remodel....pic heavy!!!

Finally got around to cleaning up the garage...it wasn't bad before but pretty vanilla and I never truly got it organized after moving into the house just over a year ago. Some before pictures....















Got everything cleaned out....scrubbed the floor...builder had put a basic epoxy finish on it...so it didn't require too much effort to get it looking good...I went with Racedeck flooring.....ordered directly through them after creating my design....



product only took 5 days to show up to my house from the west coast...



Here is a picture of it almost completed...just needed to finish the trim work...I bought a cheap circular saw to make the required cuts...my calculations were pretty spot on....I only have about 2 full tiles left and a few cut pieces...

To complete the transformation and get everything organized I went with new garage cabinets made by Newage....ordered directly...took some measurements and was able to get a combination that fit the required space and didn't break the budget....everything showed up pretty much assembled...only had to put the adjustable legs on...things were packed well...had a little damage to one locker cabinet but it was very minor and on the lower, rear section where no one would see it...








Luckily the neighborhood is still under construction...lots of dumpsters to put all of the cardboard and lots and lots of styrofoam!!

Here are some pictures of everything put back together....just need to get some with the Vette actually parked in the garage...car is finally coming back from Tampa later today...had it up at Fasterproms getting some last tweaks performed!!

Got the car back this afternoon....gave her a nice bath...it's going to need a good detail going forward...not the best pics as I pulled her in just after the sun went down...all safe and sound!!! Thing is a best...Jeremy Formato's latest tune...550 rwhp, 480 lb-ft torque.







I'll get some better pics in the morning...more mods to come...you can follow on my build thread.

All the best,
Michael

Looks Great , but darker. I'm thinking you need some more/brighter lighting in there.

Very nice stable. That flooring and storage made a world of difference. Mine needs cleaning sooooo bad. Now I may have to do that next week now since I'm off all week. Thanks for the inspiration and making me work on my vacation...
