Sound Deadening Material

Well, I assumed this would be classified as "fabrication" or soemthing like that, and I wanted to get everyone's opinion or reviews. Especially if you have used it before. While I would love to get dynamat, it's just SO expensive. I was on this website, and the price is pretty good. I just wanted to get anyone's experience using it and whatnot. I'm going to be doing the floor, behind the headliner, door panels and the trunk. It will happen over time, but it's going to happen. Quite frankly I have a base lancer so I'm NOT going to be spending a lot of money on the car, I just would like to decrease road noise, etc. Let me know, thanks for any input.

with that 100 sq ft, i did all 4 doors, the entire trunk, the trunk lid (three times), and under the back seat. after all that, i still had about 25 sq ft left. i think you'll be fine.....

try putting some of that sound deadening spray on the outside in the wheel wells. It helps quite a lot
