Who this list is for
Limited garage space is harder on a low sports car than it is on an ordinary vehicle. This setup list is for owners who want repeatable parking, better visibility, and protection for doors, walls, tires, and low-clearance areas.
How to use this list
Walk through the empty garage first. Mark the intended path and stopping point with garage floor tape, then position a parking stop, wheel guides, and any low-profile ramps for the garage threshold. Add foam wall guards, door edge guards, and corner wall protectors where doors or bodywork come close. Plan lighting with LED garage lighting, a motion sensor light, and a garage-rated extension cord. Confirm battery maintainer outlet access before placing the car.
Common mistakes
Do not install a parking stop before confirming the actual stopping position for the sports car. Do not overlook a garage threshold that may need low-profile ramps. Avoid leaving cords where they interfere with the parking path or door opening.
What is on this list
The list includes parking guidance, wall and door protection, threshold ramps, storage-use support items, lighting, rubber floor mats, a moisture absorber, and a thermometer and hygrometer.

Before you go
After setup, make a slow walk-through with the car and verify clearance at the threshold, walls, and doors. Check the stop position before relying on it daily. Confirm the maintainer outlet, lighting, moisture absorber, and fire extinguisher are accessible.
