Sound deaden trunk to reduce exhaust noise?

Does most of the exhaust sound come through the trunk? If yes, has anyone sound deadened their trunk and noticed less of the exhaust noises?

Just the occasional drone becomes annoying, and quieting the car as a whole is a plus.

Yes, I've read through that. But it doesn't pertain to my question. Thanks for the link though.

well I would say do the rear deck and the backs of the rear seats with a sound deadening foam. about 75 to all that. see how sounds from there and whether its to your liking. If not do the whole trunk. It will get rid of some of that drone but not all.
