Our Custom Installation Manager, Jay Enge went on vacation just before Labor Day weekend. Since our install crew missed him so much, they decided to do something nice for him when he was gone. An install bay makeover was the perfect solution (or punishment). Check out the project and the unveiling! Click on the pics for a larger view. |
| THE PREPARATION |
Eric and the other installers start brainstorming as to what to do to Jay's bay. The general consensus....Pink! |
Jay's stand he designed to hold his small tool box gets the princess pink treatment complete with glitter in the paint. |
Next, his favorite stool get some fresh pink glitter to match his tool box stand. |

Now's here's a makeover that would make Ty Pennington jealous. |
The bay is ready for Jay to arrive Tuesday morning after his vacation. |
| THE REVEAL |
Jay arrives to a dark install bay. The Tint van had been pulled in to block the view of his bay from the back entrance where he would enter. |
Van Driver....MOVE THAT VAN! |
Jay gets his first view of his Install Bay Makeover! |
I think Jay's is actually speachless (for a change). |
What a pretty bay for our Install Princess - Welcome Home Jay! |
Jay compliments the boys on their attention to detail with the paint job on his tool box stand and favorite stool. Notice the pretty pink cover on his welder. |
And what install princess doesn't deserve a nice soft pink fur chair cushion? |
No bay makeover is complete without pink accent lighting. Oh, and don't forget the Justin Beiber screensaver. |
Jay checks out the pink back-lighting on his custom tool holder that he made. |
Jay inspects his new Princess Wand. Notice the "Princess Jay Box" on the tool chest back-splash and the "I Can't Rush Miracles" on the top. |

And how about a little work inspiration? |
What? They even painted my stapler and tape dispenser pink! |
Jay looks a bit overwhelmed as he takes it all in (he's prbably thinking about all the re-painting he's going to have to do). |
Time for the returning install princess to take his rightful spot on his throne. |
And here you have it...Extreme Makeover - Car-Fi Edition. Jay may think twice about going on vacation again! |
Jay tries out his new and inproved work bench out with an alarm install, |
Well, vacation's over and it's back to work. Jay's tools never looked so nice! |
