The sound deadening is something that is definitely worth a look, unless your car is strictly a competition car. I've got my S14 down to bare chassis in most of it, and am watching every pound I put back into it, but will still put about $100 and 50lbs or so into sound deadening - just because a little bit goes a lonnnnng way when you remove the factory tar stuff.

If you find that driving your car is 'fatiguing', or you feel like your stereo should sound better, or you want to be able to talk on the phone with the windows up on the freeway, you can probably use some sound deadening - no matter what car.

Just covering my doors made a HUGE difference in the way they close.

Finally my pix

Just starting

Now with the Raam Matt a lot of the strips cut 2x8 inchs

finished and covered with Ensolite. Used spray glue to hold down the Ensolite

I don't have the pic with the side trim placed back in, I can get it, but I think you get the idea.

Mods, sorry if took to much space with the pix

I forgot to add that I used a formica roller that I bought at Lowes for $12. It is about 12 to 15 inches long with a 4 inch wide hard rubber wheel.

It looks like this
