    If you'd like, I can send you a picture of my garage....Once upon a time, it looked like yours. Now it looks like the season finale for the show "Hoarders"....

    There's barely enough room for the door knob when I push the door shut.

    It only took 12 years. :anonymous:

    For the first time in my 30 years on this Earth, I can finally park in a garage where I live. I want to keep it this way forever and I will do what's necessary to be able to park in the garage. I need a shed.

    It’s extremely nice in the winter since you don’t have to clear your car off. It’s also nice in the rain, to be able to stay dry while you get in and out of your car. You’re gonna love it! Our old townhouse had a garage.

    On Sunday it snowed, which is odd but not uncommon for April. Mother in law had the pleasure of being in the garage the duration of the snow.

    :frusty:

    Might try for these mods this weekend. Definitely, at the very least, the raptor lights. Wife is going to Home Goods with her girlfriend so I can get some driveway time in for sure!!

    :D:D:D

    02 Tacoma, fixed with curse words.

    Hobart 140, you can run it off a regular wall socket (need at least 20amps) and you can get them Amazon prime :D

    A welder is definitely on my list. Not high but higher than before.

    Just a matter of practicing

    :pout:

    They sent the wrong harness for the raptor kit:

    I've already reached out to the owner of Running4Tacos for the correct replacement. Bummer.

    Installed some horsepower instead and cleaned out the garage:

    Driver's side came out MUCH better than the passenger side; pulled it into the garage thinking it would be easier but it's still hard with one person. Overall though, I'm happy.

    Shout-out to @Gunshot-6A for the jberry vinyl. It was tough getting it to stick to the transfer paper. Good stuff my dude :thumbsup:

    Yeah, Im not a fan of that transfer paper brand, and end user feedback validates my opinion. Def swapping brands now. Thanks for the shout out!

    Thanks man! Shit has definitely been stressful. The family came over Sunday as we hosted Easter and everyone was SHOCKED that we had everything setup and the house done; no boxes, plastic utensils and paper plates. The wife goes full send with projects. It's stressful and tiresome, but the house does look great so you can't argue with results!

    :cheers:

    When I was done, the sticker paper was so crumpled up haha! It was the longest HP install ever; I took my time and was meticulous with it. The '.' was the worst as it took a few tries to get it to stick to the transfer paper. Great sticker though! 12/10 would recommend!!
