I gotta go to home depot / lowe's and buy some wool, since I lost the last pieces I had.
I'm guessing the more wool = less noise.

Duct tape- Put it in your pocket save it for later. lol

LoL Nooo not Duct tape! It won't come off easily when you're done, get you some of the Blue Painters tape that has a easy to remove adhesive... That way you dont leave any residue on your tips.

or if steel wool just isn't your thing shove a sock ball in each tip and tape em in then drive onto the street and pull them out.

Install a drop ceiling with sound absorbent panels and perhaps a layer of sound deadening insulation above that, leaving a dead air space between the insulation and garage ceiling (tenants floor)....

Tell them to wake up and have sex so they cant hear the car.

DUDE YOU GUYS ARE MISSING THE POINT OF THIS THREAD!!! He wants creative solutions!!!!!

Solutions:
1) Buy several boxes of duct tape and after rounding up all the stray cats you can find tape them to the ceiling... the melody of cat meows will put them back to sleeps. Also, the thickness and density of a cat is much greater than that of dynomat...

2) Keep your neighbor up all night until about 1-2 hours before you leave. by that time they will be so tired your car will be the last thing on their mind.

3) Sleeping pills... I hear they do the body good!

4) Ear Muffs buy them a set for Christmas.

5) Mount fur on the ceiling like in "get him to the greek" not only is it designer cool... its great when your high on Jeffery to calm you down
