Well I installed it all, and OIF1VET's are pretty much a mirror image of what my results were. I put one layer on the floor in the front, and put two layers over the hump that goes over the rear axel, and two layers in the trunk. I also put a layer on the panel that holds the sail pannel speakers, and a layer on the doors. Car sounds so much better, now just gotta get the funky smell out of it. I failed to take pictures of all the installed material and i'm sorry to say there is no way i'm taking all that stuff back out to take pictures. But it was worth every penny. I ended up having like 10 sq. ft extra material out of the 100 i originally had. Other than that i took pictures of the car interior stripped down to nothing. But i don't think anyone really wants to see those.

The one thing i did do that helped out alot, was i bought a roll of shop towels, and a bottle of simple green and cleaned out the whole interior surface prior to install. Then simply heated the barn up to about 75 and went to town.

The results were incredible, my components sound much better and i have much less rattle throughout the car. I think as soon as spring hits i will get the car metered again to see what db gains i net. Last summer i hit 147-148 with the windows open (it was louder windows open than with them shut).

The only problem is that now my buddy wants me to help him do this to his 87 monte ss before spring time.

Now you're learning. Nice pics but where's the Fat Mat?????

[cobalt camaro]

I must have forgotten to tell you that I am incompetent at taking pictures during a project, I always take before and after but usually not a whole lot of progress pics. I could tear everything back out and snap some pics, or just look at OIF1VET's pics and just picture my stuff having a blue logo that says FAT MAT on it... lol sorry to disapoint, please don't shun me.
