My wife and I are flipping our garage!
I've always wanted to work on cars (not that experienced) and have wanted a garage to do so.

Decided to go with a lambo theme garage because a lambo is the dream car one day!

Still have a ways to go but very happy with the current status
this photo really doesnt do it justice, but alas.

If anyone's in el paso let me know!

goal is to do some touchups
epoxy the floor
build a workbench
and put some posters up

And get a door for the water heater closet and consider painting it with the Italian flag colors? I think your garage looks fantastic and you have to start somewhere!
Good luck!

Thank you!!!!
Brilliant idea. I was wondering how to cover that water heater and thats actually a fantastic solution!!
whoohoo lol thank you!

You could also just do a white door with a large flag decal. It looks like it might have to be a small custom size door.

OP, your garage decorations are pretty impressive. Flags are always pretty cool. Mind if I borrow one or two of your ideas?

haha jk heck ya! go for it
those flags look sick so I might do that.

willing to trade legal services and decoration ideas for lambo rides haha jk


I got the giant badge from this guy Dave Burnham on Etsy
its a custom metal badge weighs about 75 pounds.

its not perfect and there are some imperfections but he gave me a really nice price for the size and quality overall.

the silver wording was from this seller

Maybe you could cover it up with a flag? Would still leave easy access if you need to get to the heater.

That lip in you garage scared me then I realized you already have the foam stop sign up for protection

Yes, I got the stop thingy from Amazon then I cut a section of a pool noodle and insulated the base. BTW, I bought it pre-COVID and it was only $16........tad bit of inflation with a helping of greed........yummy.

yah thats what im starting to lean towards!
Originally i was thinking of getting like a shower rod curtain and hanging something over
flag could work nicely

The Lamborghini sign with the red background looks very nice, as far as the water heater is concerned; in the future you can install a tankless unit on the wall and add a door to create storage.

Nothing like thinking outside the box.

Sweet❗ I instantly wanted to know where you got that sign. 10 years ago I may have used the same guy for the silver sign to do a section of my stairwell 'shrine' (now obsolete, but I still keep it for the memory).
Great Ideas, Now I'm starting to feel compelled to dressing up my garage❗

Yeah just buy two 3M hooks and hang a flag!

Hey ❗ So you've got it made, when the time comes there's not going to be any such thing as trying to convince the wife..... she's now already committed, given in, she knows what's going to end up there.
Good Job, smart move.... A fine example of how putting the cart before the horse could work to your benefit,

I love it!! never obsolete haha

I will say painting always sounds like a blast until you start doing it 😂
Yah I was really happy with the sign. You can't tell but it is a bit 3-d which is way nicer than just painting a stencil
