Was it just that note, no envelope, no sender....I said forget that.....It's probably some old dude bored of life that had nothing better to do but was to afraid to come to your house and ask nicely....

If it came from a homeowners association and it is in your restrictions then you have to comply or your family might see some fines. If it just came from a stupid neighbor, ignore it, there's nothing they can do, is your damn garage, you can do whatever you want.

I had a guy that got pissed off because I did an engine swap in the driveway of our rented house, he said he rented the house for living not for business, I was like WTF, this aint business is my damn f'ing car.....we got kicked out in about a month :P

My neighbor had a couple RX7's and he was constantly revving them, burning out, flying around, and ran around a few days without an exhaust on. My neighbors never said squat.

The best solution would probably be to get MORE ripped apart cars that are louder, later at night.

Ive never had any respect for "letter writers", if the guy dosent have the jam to come up to your house when hes got a beef then ---- em. I mean, if the guy came out and politly asked you if you could do somthing then it would be different. Thats my take anyways.

My Neighbours kick ass, the ones next door to me are from South Carolina drive a civic and are fascinated with what I do on my driveway, my 2 neighbours directly in front of my house are awesome too, one of them owns a Dodge Super Bee with cams and headers that he just put on, thing makes more noise than a honda thats for sure.
The other neighbour infront is proud to see that I'm actually in a hobby like this instead of out there doing drugs and commiting crimes and robbing people.
Both of them come by sometimes when I work on my car, they both said they dont mind the noise at all, most of the time they dont really notice it anyway, then again I usually finish making noise around 7-8pm and then clean up.

I think you should post a note for them all to see:

Attention all residents-

If you have a problem with me or anything I do, man up and say it to my face instead of a shitty, pourly written note.

kthnxbye.


Then follow it up by a massive burnout. >:D

I had an old Italian neighbor who would wait for me in the middle of the street with a broom and angrily swing at me as I passed.
