No doubt about it. $900 is cheap now compared to when you wish you had
insulated it later on. You can get the reflective foil back type as well
that will help spread light around your shop nicer. Insulation also helps
with noise (like if you have your air compressor in another room- a good
idea, btw), and with dust reduction.
If I were going to still have a garage in a few months, I would be spending
it myself.
