Yeah you should definetly get dynamat especially with two W7's. My friends got two Alpine Type R's and they rattle his honda alot with no dynamat. as for the doors, dynamat them just to make sure.

sr20de4evr,
man, thats a nice job you did over there. I would go with option 2 also, do the rest of the car.

i have a question for you though, did you get the fatmat kit from their website? or there's a cheaper place to buy them? thanks

Re: Re: Re: DYNAMAT? how well does it work?

I got the 100sqft pack from http://fatmat.com for $125 shipped

As far as I know that's the only place to get it other than ebay maybe. After driving for 7hrs today I realized I hate my sunglass holder. Next weekend I'll probably fatmat the hell out of that, both A and B pillars, and the floor. I might do the roof as well, not sure yet.

Road noise is almost gone, when driving 60 down the freeway I dropped it to N and let the rpm die down and it was just silence. It's amazing how much of a difference this can make.

How hard is it to properly install this stuff? I have a Jeep Cherokee and want to line the inside of my roof and the sides of the car with this stuff

haha, yeah I'm just a college student trying to find the cheapest crap that still works

It's pretty easy to install, though I did sit there for close to 10 min looking back and forth between my stripped trunk and the roll of fatmat wondering where to begin. Once you get going it goes pretty smoothly. Make sure you get a roller, mine broke halfway through the trunk install and I had to use my hands. My fingers sure payed the toll on that move, they got shredded pretty bad.

It took me 50sqft exactly to do my trunk and front doors, with 36 I would start on the doors and make sure you finish those, because they will make the most difference. Then get to work on the trunk, if you run out no big deal, it doesn't make as much of a difference in the trunk as it does in the doors. Just make sure you do the trunk lid to keep it from vibrating.
