dang i went to home depot to find the peal and seal, but they did not kno what on earth i was talkin about. is there a name of the product someone can give me so i can tell them wat to look for???

Check the roofing section. It's called Peal and Seal. It's also a bitch to work with and will leave a nasty smell in your car for a while. I would look into dynamat alternatives and comparison shop first.

yea i did look in the roofin section for peal and seal, and they had no idea wat it was

Sometimes it's called Ice "Something".. like Ice Guard.

It's a black insulation with a tar like adhesive on the back.

its ur bumper....well....all i know is that if its the whole trunk in general just shove some towels around and up in some holes...works for me

you know how they say that if you face the subs to a corner of your trunk, it will sound better? Well....I think if I dynamat my trunk, it will kill the sound. It will sound cleaner, but way softer. The back seat (leather) already reduces the bass 50%. Is there any way to get around that?

dynamat is supposed to make it louder. like 3-4db louder i think. Dynamat shouldnt do anything but make it sound better.

Besides the obvious: put seats down. You could remove the rear speakers so that the sound can get into the cabin through those holes there (facing subs up would help with SQ).

US.$20 for 8x11 is too expensive. U should get it at a real audio store. My friend sell a whole roll for CAN.$400 & it will be enough to dynomat 2 1/2 car. And I mean the whole 2 1/2 car. If anyone needs dynomat PM me. My friend knows the supplier for them. Maybe something can be worked out even cheaper.

try some poly fill, aka pillow stuffing (but don't just stuff the whole pillow in, just the stuffing). dyno mat only works if you lay it down on the floor, it dampens the road noise. it won't work if you stick it to a side panel.
