looks great but it is way too clean to be a true "man cave".

Thanks ! The mural was about $4000 and well worth it. The upclose details are really awsome! The dark brown background on the workbench was done to look like pegboard and has some tools hanging from it. I wanted the storage cabinets to "disappear" so the mural was the answer.
Man cave??? No way !! This was MY idea. HE has a man cave (aka shop) downstairs. The plasma, mini fridge etc are down there too. (besides in the winter its TOO cold to do anything out there. )


We dont do anything in the garage except (for the most part) park the cars. We own 2 2008's so if something needs fixing they go to the dealer.

Steve what happened to Annie ????? About now (Ike is coming) you need to jump a plane and come visit !!

Default WOW!!! Amazing Garage!

W W !!! I am soooooo jealous. That is one amazing looking garage!!!

The air pump is a very creative solution for hiding the fuse box and the electric outlet on the wall. And the door into the house is also well camouflaged -- I didn't even realize it was a door, until I saw the close up pic.
