Pimp My Garage?

You may not be able to afford that "West Coast Customs" look for your ride, but how about the garage where you leave it?

Style-Your-Garage.com are offering a range of self adhesive garage-door covers that depict the contents of your garage as everything from a fighter jet to a strip joint. There's even one showing it to be completely empty. So if you fancy having an alligator, a speedboat or even a metro station in your garage, Style-Your-Garage.com have just the thing for you (Daily Mail).

The site works fine for me. Probably overloaded by the legions of WU readers.
I would love one of these and at about $200, they're pretty reasonable.

I hope they open a US distributor soon.

cool site dumbfounded! of course you know there isn't a neighborhood anywhere that you could have the stripper one without a bunch of pissed off people having a cow. couldn't you see some guy putting up the empty garage one and then going out drinking, coming home and smashing in to the 'open' garage door? :lol:

It sounds like a really cool idea, but I couldn't go for the gold bars. That's like saying, "Hey! Rob me!"
And the graffiti monster, er... looks more like monster genitalia. I don't think I'd want that on my door.

But the wine cellar or heaven and hell would be pretty cool. I'd have to use something a lil' more secure than a velcro strip, though.

i'd think having it painted on would be better. some a-hole would probably steal it otherwise.
