Default Building a better home (custom garage?)

Now that I have the 997, my garage just isn't up to the task. One's contempary and all about design, the other is a wreck. Anyone recommend a high-end custom garage finisher (i'm in the bay area) or other component companies that you have used for clean, stainless steel type fixtures?

Jerry,

Your garage is awesome. Mine looks like they should be shooting snuff films in it.

Something to consider... . Insted of going the multiple us$10K route for custom-designed cabinetry, just buy multiple steel storage cabinets approx 2x4x7 feet and line the walls with them. As long as all the confusing junk is hidden the garage will look great since the car will be "featured" without distraction.

Uh, Jerry...your garage is nicer than my kithcen and den. What are we talkin' here, in terms of greenbacks? I'm probably going to sell my house in the spring and don't want to do any major upgrading, but am planning for the new 997S digs so please share...

thx
