Getting there. I think I will wait till the final product for the next set of pictures. I think you guys will like it.

First coat of paint on the walls and some lighting up. 2 more coats then the fun of decorating begins.

That looks nice! Wish I knew how to work with the darn drywall. I just end up making a mess.

Teaser pic of the decorations going on. Had to enlist the help of my wife since she has more of an artistic touch.

Very nice diy project. Looking forward to seeing all of the finishing touches. I'm guessing this first piece of artwork is a pic of your Turbo? Good going enlisting the help of the wife with the intricate work

LOL, Thanks! Actually no that's not my car. The only picture of my cars that is going up is one of my RX-7 in one of the niches. I never had a professional photo of the Turbo taken so it didn't make the cut. If I do get a nice photo of it one day I may have to remove one of the current pieces going into a niche with it.

Wow, that looks awesome. I like how you've split the space into the Porsche side and Mazda side to represent both of your cars. What's next? Couch, chairs, tv, poker table?

Thank you! Next is some art to fill in the niches. Then black plugs and light switches, black crown molding and paint the garage doors black. The flooring and floor border will get done next year....

Then couch TV and fridge. lol

What a great space and a very impressive 'transformation'. I like the lighting and stenciling.

Got the crown molding done. That's pretty much it for this year other than a couple of things I am waiting on to frame and put in the 2 last niches.

Crown molding and black light/plug outlets...












Here is what I put in 2 of the 4 niches...

Pic of my RX7 that a friend took..




Porsche 911 patent poster...



So other than pics of the last to things going in the niches this is it for this year.
