BMX672, sounds like fun! I would love to have a garage with a small fridge (for beer and Gatorade), flat screen TV and a comfy sofa to lounge around and stare at the car!

Some cool vintage Porsche posters would be neat. I'd also like to take some of the pictures on my car from last year's Tail of the Dragon trip, get them enlarged and divided up amongst 3-4 picture frames, and then mount on the wall.

A few years ago, someone ( could have been Jeph) posted a web site that will take your photograph, and do this special processing.

What epoxy will you use?

Use the checkerboard floor tiles to do the garage space the Porsche is parked in and leave the others with the epoxy. Paint the walls and ceiling a nice color. Then paint a big Porsche logo on the wall in front of the space.

Then buy a lift so you can buy a Carrera GT and park in under the Boxster

Yes, a fridge is in the works already!

I managed to find some 4'x8' slat wall for about $25 each!!! I'm going to pick up a few sheets tonight if I can get my buddies truck. I think doing that along one wall would be really cool. The only thing is it's white... maybe I could roll on some primer gray... the slat wall have that laminate on it so I'm not sure if anything will stick to it.

My dad had the Porsche logo, Ferrari, and Bourget painted on one of his walls. The floor is racedeck, yellow/gray checkerboard. The walls, have a border with the left over scrap racedeck. The cabinets he bought at home depot and assembled and painted them grey with yellow trim. Both of the garage doors are also painted yellow on the inside with grey trim. He recently added a Lamborghini mural to the other wall.

You can see in the garage here, I'll see if I've got better pictures somewhere.


Here's the best example I could find and the pic is really blurry. But, you get the idea.

That's awesome!
I was thinnking about the big Porsche crest... If I decide to, I would do it as a large digital vinyl... I buy large scale prints almost every day for my work... so I have a lot of good sources etc...
