    Yes it is I don't think its funtioning but if I remember correctly its a real pump from the old days he restored

    Re: Need help with my garage!!!

    You need a floor treatment. Painted floor with a gloss will enhance the overall look.

    Re: Need help with my garage!!!

    Flevio, What color is your 997?

    Thanks

    It's a work in progress. I can't figure out how to put a pic in here so I put it in my gallery:

    THANKS! Carlos.

    You too. It's hard to tell from the small picture but I'd almost bet that it is a Suzuki 2003 GSX-R 1000. And if I'd have to guess at the quad I'd say it was a Yamaha 660-R Raptor ???

    Flevio,
    I don't know if you own that garage or rent but if you own I would put white blinds on the windows.

    When I first read this I thought you meant cooler temp!!! My garage has a dark metal door facing west... it gets very hot anyway, but now with the 997S which is always very hot when I park it...it's even hotter... the elec fan keeps going for a long time..

    Interesting. I use an electric fan in my ugly garage to dissipate engine heat and dry out any moisture in the air, walls, etc. Maybe the fan will help dry the paint I need to put on the walls, too!

    Re: Need help with my garage!!!

    Stradale: thanks for the pics,is your garage that I see from the CS pic? Anyway rosso scuderia really rocks on your CS Congrats it's beautiful!!

    I don't think that blinds are made for a garage

    Thanks a lot Flevio! The Rosso Scuderia was made for that car. Notice the calipers same color ?

    No, the picture of my Stradale was taken at the place I had the 3M body armour put on the car. The very first day I picked her up I drove the car from the dealer 2 miles away for the body armour. Had the whole front, side's done. The dealer sells this service but my detailer is an artist with the stuff.

    The picture of my garage floor is the one with my bikes. I used Epoxy. Stuff's great. Like this:http://www.musclegloss.com/

    I have blinds on my garage window. Not only does it look more finished, like a room inside but makes me feel better that no one can see in. Dunno

    Re: Need help with my garage!!!

    I personally love the look of your garage as is....clean. Many garages have a nice car in it, but it looks more like the car is in a storage unit, rather than a garage. If I had your garage, I might consider some red or black tool cases....but I like the clean simple look.

    Thanks JP66,my idea was in fact to add something(tool cases could be a good choice ) and not to exaggerate!
    I also thought to add some posters but....dont't know

    Indeed they are! you know your stuff

    Re: Need help with my garage!!!

    I was thinking of putting these tiles down on my garage floor. Anybody have personal experience with them?

    Re: Need help with my garage!!!

    It depends if it's a private garage or if you share with other people Flevio.
    Personally, I am not really into decorating garages, but if it's a private garage, it'd be nice to have some sort of shelf where you keep tools and cleaning products.
    Then you could have a tyre rack where you store your racing tires and your winter tires. Just an idea.

    Waste of money,
    You can get the exact same products withouth the Porsche Tequipement label at a fraction of the price.
    They do come however in a nice silver look suitcase.
    You'd have to be pretty vain and daft to buy one from Porsche.
    I did!

    Re: Need help with my garage!!!

    me too and got dissapointed, they just dont have the ability to shine much

    But the leather cleaner and conditioner seems nice(and the suitcase!!)


    Could someone explain what is the 3M Body armour? Could i have this applied in Greece?

    I would show you a pic of my house garage, but it only groung yet!!!!!!;)
