If you're going to do a vinyl roof, might as well make a statement and do checkered vinyl.

That's a novelty hammer with the Philadelphia Eagles logo on it... not to be used for man-stuff.

Yeah, the previous owner had that storage rack on the wall and I just stuck the football there. Fits nicely, I must say.

Thanks, a few more mods on that garage and it'll be done.

I think you should paint it. I wouldn't think it would cost very much money. If your going to do it, might as well do it right ! At the very least get a quote from a paint shop.
I've been going the oposite direction as you. I changed out my black mirror caps for a set of Pepper white caps.
