I know Dynomat only reduces speaker vibrations, right? Anything out there that reduces road or wind noise?

new door seals proper insulation under carpet, inside doors and anywhere else you get noise from

Here is the best thing you can do.

Cover the inner door metal in the door with 1-2 layers of Dynamat subsitute. Add a thick layer of carpet padding between door and door skin. Add carpet padding on rear deck, under and behind back seat. Put 5-6 layers of Dynamat like materials on wheel wells (inside and outside) and firewall. Put 1/2-1" think carpet padding on firewall. This will make your car a lot quieter. For example, my car is quieter than the new Altima if you driven one. You can see what I did in my homepage.
