seriously. where are all the peeps who said they were gonna do this and post pics? im interested, but only have 1 persons word on it! so this insulating stuff is lighter than dynomat? i know its def cheaper! i was thinking about doing my coupe's interior flooring with the cheap stuff and the doors with dynomat. has anyone else done this? and im wondering if insulating the trunk is a must if youre not gonna be rocking out subs?

Yeah so I was actually going to Dynamat my car next week.. I don't care about price, it doesn't matter to me. I want the best for my system. I'm putting 2 12s in my trunk next week and I want it to sound the best it possibly can. Anyone on here used Dynamat?

Has anyone tried this with subs in the trunk? did it help?

you should try using some industrial grade aluminum foil to cover the foam, it will further dampen it, just use some foam spray mount, then maybe spray mount the foam directly onto whatever surface so it takes the shape and also dampens out any rattles too. and use some aluminum tape for the seams. I've used the foil method with neoprene foam sheets before and works great, i might do i double layerd pad.

great post! I'll be trying out your ideas with a few modifications gere and there soon, i'll post some pics soon.

I went to home depot and bought aluminum tape and 8lb carpet padding that already has the water and mold treatment. However, when i asked about the aluminum foil no one knew what i was talking about. where did you get it?
I'm also doing this to help with rattles from subwoofer, so i might double it up.

Thx!
