OK, we've all seen the fantastic Acuras on this forum, but how about where our babies sleep? I just pimped my garage last week top to bottom. I know there has to be others out there!

It's so refreshing to see someone with a CLEAN garage! Looks great, good job!

 

Dave,

If you EVER show this picture to my wife, I will F'n kill you.


:wink:





That is an awesome looking garage.

 

Dont have any recent pics of it completely finished but here are some. Since i have changed the layout some and added a pull out for my TV
Oh and its fully insulated and heated for winter






still sloppy and dirty in this pic

 

im very jealous, aswell as my car and motorcycle

 

I don't have a garage, just living in a town house for now with some buddies from college, but when I do finally graduate and get my own place, a big garage is a must.

 

Nice garages, I have a 2 door garage meaning there is only enough room for 1 car to go in each door. I can never work in my garage b/c there is a dame brick pole slapped right in the middle.

 

Only if my garage wasn't already full with everything that is in it and my dad's Pearl White 84 'Vette . Then I would have a garage for mine, but that isn't going to happen so I have to stick with nature as my garage.

 

A garage that clean looks unnatural.

 

damn thats a hot garage.

Dave are you gonna grace us with your presence at the CCSU car show? theres a thread in the meet section check it out

 

That's a pimp ass garage. It puts my black widow nest to shame.

Excuse me, I need to go fog my garage.

 

"Grace you with my presence?" I'll have to see what's going on. I might have to deliver my bike to the Cape that weekend. Been kinda busy this summer. Too many house projects! I'm all done for '07 tho.

 

I can't wait to get a house so I can do this as well, still about a year away. A friend of mine has a boss who has a 10,000 lb hydraulic lift in his garage, I want that.

 

i'd be happy with finally getting an air compressor first... my garage is full of junk all around the two cars sitting in there...

 

Nice...I love a neat organized garage. I think it's so much easier to get work done when you stay organized. And being in Naval Aviation, we have some very strict rules about tool control. You should see our tool boxes.

 

I'd be happy with just a garage of my own to start, but it's nice to have goals.

 

i park mine out in a lot behind my house where someone once stole the LE and a hubcap off of my mom's camry

 

Very impressive garages.........good job guys....

I too own a town house....so no garage for me

But I do have two parking spaces right behind the house....so I'm thankful for that couldn't let my baby sleep out on the street.....

 

Nice! You should add shoe moulding near where the garage floor meets the walls. That would finish the project up nicely!

 

nice job on the garage, Wish i had enough time and patience to do that

nice car, but u should swap that motorcycle for an R1 haha

 

WOW....I'd just love to have my garage look that organized. No matter how I try, things just seem to end up on the garage floor. HELP!!!

Here is where my baby sleeps. I have a garage at my house but its filled with my brothers toys and my toys so luckly my boss lets me keep it at our shop...

 

How do you get home?

 

oh i got a company work truck.

 

Not to get off topic, but your TL is probably the only one I've seen with 20's that actually looks decent. Good job

 

thanx. ive been trying to get new pics up of it with the air ride but been busy. hopefully this weekend i can take pics

 

mikey3.2 the second pic in your post is def a money shot. Your ride looks amazing! It makes me kinda miss my 99 front end. What % is your tint? What Air suspension are you running? When running air suspension, do you have to take out the inner fender lining or it doesn't rub when you low like that?

 

THANX. the tint is 30% i just wanted something light and clean looking. im running easystreet air struts. as for the inner fenders i took them before hand but i dont think they will fit with the 20s, but njprittyboy is running them with his air ride and 20s.

 

looks real nice!! Anyone I have seen with anything larger than 19's look like ghetto ass...

 

Well, since the cat's out of the bag in 3G, I thought I'd revive this thread.

Decided to do 5S (you Six Sigma/Corporate types know what I mean) on the garage. The ONLY reason was so I'd have a place to work on the TL-S's (2002 & 2007). Never had the itch to work on/mod my car before.

When I started my 3G MID was on 20% or 30% Oil Life. Wanted to finish to do my first DIY Oil Change and Tire Rotation.


Before (~ Month ago):








Temp Storage:






Cleaned and Painted the Floor First (~2 weeks ago):




Then Got Organized (~10 days ago):















Nearly Done (Yesterday):







Final Cleanup tomorrow - sweep and mop mostly.

Still a handful of items I've got to figure out what to do with. Also need to add a new circuit and put in some better lighting. After that, we'll see.

MID is now at 15%. First DIY Oil Change sometime next week.

Couple of other mods on the way as well.

Oh, and before I forget: Props to the guys in this thread and to mmade22 for the inspiration.

 

^^ looks good man, i wanna do that to mine this summer, right now shes a tight fit

 

Looks Great Bearcat94!! I still have yet to paint my floor. Im hoping to make that my project this summer

 

Those are some nice garages! Mine is getting there.. I'll take pictures once its completed!

 

Nice job Bearcat94! I noticed that you use the floor plates for parking. I had pieces of wood on my old floor. When I finished my garage, I didn't want to pt the wood back but I also didn't want my wife to drive through my new cabinets. I ended up getting a pair of laser parkers. They work great and flip everyone out. http://www.instapark.com/category/instapark/ I found them online for $19 and change.

 

here's my garage....what you can't see is the 20" flat panel and surround sound

 

actually..heres a pic of part of the surround sound

 

Where's the pic?

 

what do yall paint the floors with normally?

 

I used the Valspar/QuickCrete kit. Comes with 1 Gal of 2 part Epoxy Paint (250 sq ft); Cleaner/Etch and "Sprinkles". I needed 2 kits do do the whole floor (~480 Sq feet).

I aslo did a top coat with the Clear Acrylic from the same company.


Hopefully it'll hold up. Did A LOT of prep cleaning to try and make sure we had a good surface for the paint.


Dave - Nice Lasers. I might add them later. Got the "car stop" held in place with Velcro so it shouldn't slide around.


nj: GREAT cabinets and benchtop. I gagged when I asked for the price on a custom piece of Butcher Block.
