Magnetic Gray 1st 'Mods' and Mod Zone
Took my car to the dealer today to get the spoiler, quickshift, and tint done. Also de-badged it....just too much going on with the rear end.
I also thought I would share some pictures of my shop. I used to have a gas pig Chevy truck that consumed all of my time. Now I can use it for working on the tC.

Thanks for the comments. Really, the hoist wasn't too expensive. I never really thought much about one until I was researching epoxy garage floor paint. I ran across some guys with them on some forums.
Mine is a pretty light duty one, but it does the trick. I mainly use it for storage. Our 3rd bay is technically an RV garage, but we just have a small boat and a pop up trailer. The hoist seemed like an economical way to take advantage of the high ceilings.
I've used it a few times for working on cars. It is very handy.

Yep. This is the 3rd bay of my garage. I have a normal 2 car garage with this monster attached to the side. It is set up for a big motorhome. It is 50' long, 13' wide, and nearly 2 stories high.
Originally I wanted to build a shop in the back yard of our old house. We had a big lot and all I did was mow my huge lawn. It would have been a perfect place for a big shop. Anyway, never got around to building the shop.
My wife wanted to upgrade our house a few years ago. We found this place and it was a perfect compromise. She got a new house, and I got the closest thing to a shop.
The only downside to the house is that the community is aimed at retirement aged folk. Many of the houses in the neighborhood have RV garages. That attracts an older demographic. Not to many young folks own big motorhomes. Oh well, at least my neighborhood is quiet.
