Drywall and paint. Extra lighting on the ceiling and the walls. A few banners for good measure.

Awesome man! looking good for a start. Lighting would be my first suggestion and seeing that your renting you better ask the LL what other things you can and cant do.

Wow! That's cheap, can't touch anything around here for less than $3000.00 per month. $1500 if it's tiny...

Organize and label everything so you can work as effectively and efficiently as possible for the type of detailing work you preform. Strategic design of tools, equipment and supplies will make you more profitable and make the work easier.

A nice long spray bottle rack hung on that 2x10 between the two posts as well as some hooks for wheel brushes and baskets for sponges and the like to throw in and dry. Also like others have mentioned it looks pretty dark. Daylight LED lighting that can be plugged and unplugged and taken with you when you change locations. No need to invest a lot of money tho, find old light fixtures and some old extension cord and make your own plug in lights. Cheap and very easy to do. Then just check out a lowes or Home Depot for bulbs.

I'd love to have a setup like that for 300/month. My only suggestions would have been lighting, and maybe a coating on the floor...but since you're renting. I would not invest in the coating.
