i have used the rattle trap in 3 vehicles, a pontiac GTO, the accord in the pics, as well as the doors in my mom's Ford Expedition. To bring the fat mat to trinidad cost approx. 16-17 per square foot, which is not bad.
slacker jack and spam, bringing down 50sqft. is not gonna get you that far in 2 seperate vehicles. Just to give you an idea, we used the same 100 sqft. package to do the Pontiac and the Honda, and well we did not get that far.
We did the entire honda trunk, 2 doors, under rear seat area, front floors, rear deck.
we did the 4 doors and the spare tire well in the trunk alone in the Pontiac.
Another 100sq ft. package ,2 rolls, was then ordered, and the honda's trunk was doubled up, the front doors in the pontiac were doubled up and the trunk was completed with 2 layers in the pontiac, we used the rest on my mom's expedition.
Now granted the pontiac and the accord both had extremely huge trunk spaces, and we did go a little crazy on the accord, i think the rear deck had like 3 maybe 4 layers on some spots, and the front doors were about the same. But to me and the 2 other fellas who i did the install for definately noticed a difference and were glad we went in that direction. We calculated the cost and at the time we payed 140 or some for the 100sqft. package, not sure why its 160 now. and to do it in dynamat brand deadener would have costed us like 780US, which is using the cheapest ebay price on the bulk pack which was like 130 or some with shipping.
So if yuh ask me, 280 for 200sqft., versus 780 for 216 sqft. it just doesnt make any sense to me, especially when i checked the cost to bring the package down into trinidad using a skybox was less than 100us.
Mat=160, shipping 100
total cost 260US x 6.3 is 1638. Not tell me where i can get 100sqft. of any deadener no matter the brand locally for 1638. I even think that is cheaper than using flashband.
