If you've ever dreamed of the day you can park your [Mercedes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grand-edition-gwagen) in your garage, but you just can't afford one yet, try investing in this deceptive garage door mural instead. The large decal sticks to the door of your garage and makes it look like a fancier car than the one you own is parked inside.

The water resistant, high quality photo is intended for external use. It comes with a complete kit to install the wallpaper and comes in three sizes for single garage doors. Ideal for up-and-over, wing and sectional doors, the garage door mural will be sure to leave your neighbors doing a double take as they walk or drive by. Rather than being self-adhesive, the door decor is attached using velcro.
