Well everyone I just finished up. 5 8' T8 fixtures and $140 in 8000k super white bulbs later I am thrilled. I went from 1 incandescent bulb to this... I painted the entire garage eggshell on Friday. I'm keeping the decor to a minimum as to maximize the reflection. I have absolutely no...

What bulbs are you going with? What about for the side of the car? Do you have adequate light with your setup? I'm going with these http://www.lowes.com/pd_133047-371-89069_0__?productId=3063317

Yes everything is dry wall and painted in a white eggshell base. I have zero pictures hung so this should help with reflection.

Thanks for the replies. My plans are limited to detailing my cars. I will not be using it as a workshop or anything.

Hi, I'm planning on installing some 8' t8 lights in my garage using 5000k sunshine bulbs. How many fixtures would I need to make my garage bright? I was thinking 4 or 5, which is a total of 16-20 bulbs at 2800 lumens each. Is that overkill?
