You took off all your old pictures, what happened? Did you redo everything recently or are these old pictures?

How much did it cost you to dynamat your whole car? Did it really help keep out the sound?

Dynamating the car really helps. I did the smae thing to my max and you can tell a world of difference since I have done it.
STEREO MODS:
Alpine CVA 1005
Alpine DVA 5205
MOMO 6 1/2 components
Two 12" MOMO subs
Alpine 5 channel V12 Expert amp

all my old pictures will be updated very soon..so far i dynamatted the floor, left side doors, trunk and firewall. i still have to do the headliner, left side doors and all pillars. most of my equipment has been upgraded, that's why i took off my old pics for now...however, within the next couple of weeks i will post pictures as soon as my install is complete..until then keep in touch..as far as pricing, i bought hi-temp mastic from http://www.mcmaster.com for $12.79 per roll of 12sq. ft. so i spend about $250 for 16 rolls shipped, plus $90 for heat shield and about $80 for undercoat and other various things...its not finished yet so i cannot tell you exactly what kind of difference it has made as i havent fully installed my box yet, but i will update my page very soon..keep in touch

couple of questions for you

Dude, quite a project! Do you have an estimate of how long it has taken you to do all of this?
The big question I have is how much did all that stuff weigh? seems like it would be a lot.
Is it signifigantly quieter?

heatshield is a noise insulation material. it stops the road noise a little bit. please check my website out again as i took a little time to rearrange the pics a little bit.
