Finally a garage I can call my own. No more driving the car to the parents for hand washes.

New house so the garage is a work in progress.

Started with some overhead storage from Costco, SafeRacks:



Tight fit with the Tiguan. I should have measured a little better but I'm 5'10 and I would say clearance is 6ft. I may raise this later


Then added 4 4ft shop lights:


Then I was convinced to paint...which I'm glad I did. I was going for just all white when I found some pics online of the colors I wanted to do immediately. DIY, and I'm new to painting. Strip wasn't perfect as I had a little bleed but overall I'm happy.

Painting was the right call. Makes it look that much better.

And makes me want to paint mine...

My advice is raise the racks now before they're full of stuff.

That was the best thing I did in my garage. Freed up so much space.

The paint looks awesome.

Thanks! I wasn't at first because I was being lazy. My wife kept telling me I should and then when I researched and found the colors...I was like that's the look I want!

I don't have much stuff on the rack now and need to make take measurements to figure out the best height but for sure I don't want to have too much stuff on there before I make the adjustment.

Thanks for the compliment on the paint!

From the old. Love our old home but the old 1 car garage I will not miss one we move to the new home. The Eurovan does fit however and it hides in there during winter and hail season.

Hello friend, that's very similar to mine!! Except your floor looks much nicer, haha. I like the gray you chose better than the one I did. (pardon the woodworking equipment, I don't have a good wide shot with my GTI):

Technically, this is the room over my garage, but it's the reason my garage hasn't been getting any love lately. It was unfinished storage, but had HVAC and electric in it. Still need to put a real light in, but I got the floors, walls, woodwork, and paint done. Almost ready for use.
