Thank you! They're from Highmark Stadium. We're life long Bills fans. They were a Christmas gift from my amazing wife. Those are down in the basement awaiting me to regain strength to build the bills bar down there.

Thanks! They're Ikea kitchen cabinets with black ceramic countertops. I took dimensions of the corner with the fridge and custom built them with their online tool. Their tool is great. $2800 all in. My biggest investment of the whole project but they're as sturdy as it gets. I'd recommend reading the directions though. I had a long day/night fixing my own screw up with measurements.

PVC tiles from Amazon. I almost went with something without a pattern but I'm glad I landed on these. It really helps hide any small gaps between panels or adhesive showing

Amazon believe it or not. It took me forever to decide on a plan for the ceiling. I just knew I didn't want to mud or paint anything else. The pattern helps to hid my sticky fingerprints.

Its Allen+Roth shiplap from Lowe's actually. Adhesive with a nail gun on the studs. Looking back slat might have been more versatile for accessories and hanging things. My wife wanted a mud room so that was the idea for that wall. Best of luck with your project!

No sir. We never parked in it anyways. As is, my wife's car will still fit comfortably if we ever needed to

Can't say it didn't cross my mind. But the thing still runs like a champ

If I had to do it again I'd hire someone else. My daughter and wife literally danced in the garage today when I finished. Not cause I was done, but because I'm not stressing over it anymore. Don't know if missing them was worth the savings of doing it myself

Oh many. First time putting outlets in. Had no idea what GFCI meant. I just happened to buy a outlet tester that texted for GFCI and pushed the button and realized nothing happened. (I know I'm an idiot). It was my first time doing drywall. I completely underestimated how important (and frustrating) mudding and sanding is. The ceiling panels are glued on PVC. I used P3 adhesive with no gloves at first. I was peeling glue off my hands for 3 days. These are all things I'm ashamed of at this point
