4th gen wind noise

I already dynamated both of my doors with one layer. Don't flame me... i get it for 30 bucks from Best Buy.

But i still have wind noise! There's gotta be a way to cut this wind out. 70 mph +

1) should i replace the window oem rubber stripping.
2) should i add more adhesive somewhere around the window?

1 have close to 100 lbs of deadening in my 4th gen and it is very quiet. However, the road noise is still more noticeable than the wind noise. I have done nothing to my window or door seals.

Park your car in the garage or somewhere quiet, roll up the windows and turn the fan on high. From outside the car, listen and feel around all the door and window seals for air leaks.

You can buy weatherstrip backing strips(putty) at any home store. It is placed behind the worn factory weatherstripping to increase the pressure against the glass or door frame.

I believe replacement factory door seals are about $60-$65 a door.
