How resilient is your product to heat?

Bought some of this stuff via Amazon the other day (Prime 2-Day Ship FTW) and I'm pretty happy considering how inexpensive it was.
I used about 30sq ft to do the majority of my trunk and the area under the rear seats. There has been a noticeable reduction in road and exhaust noise, some of the other noises that go through the chassis are still there, so I might be buying more to see if I can quiet those down as well. One install tip, if your trunk was anything like mine and is dirty/greasy/generally nasty, Clean it really well before trying to apply the matting. Originally I just vacuum out the trunk and wiped things down, but still had some adhesion issues so I got out some heavy duty degreaser and went to town. An easy way to test for adhesion is to run a piece of painters tape or masking tape across the surface before trying to apply the mat, should save some waste. For those of you wondering about heat, I have a wood stove in my house that heats the lower floor. Since it was ~40* outside I left the mats sitting in front of the stove (about 1' away) as I was working and would go inside and grab one as needed. Interestingly enough, the mats never got 'hot' to the touch, just warm, maybe slightly above room temperature and were cold after sitting outside for 5 minutes. While warm, I did notice that they were much, much easier to work with though... |

Where would the most optimal place to put this sample be in a coupe?

Depends on what noise you want to cut down on... What's the loudest part of the car?

For most coupes, we have been recommending the entire hatch area plus the doors. Usually that requires 30-36sqft.

Finally go to listen to my stereo at full tilt with the GT Mat installed... and I am very pleased. There are NO trunk rattles what so ever, and all the speakers sound crisp and clear. I used the GT mat to do the trunk lid, doors, and rear deck. Phenomenal product guys! i don't sound like a ghetto junkie anymore!

Just to follow up on my previous post.
This stuff is rad. Over the last couple of weeks, I've finally gotten around to doing the rest of my interior and there's a noticeable difference in road noise. Initially, I did most of my trunk and a bit of the rear seat area and felt like this stuff had some promise. Figured I'd order some more to play around with and see what kind of results I'd get, for the 150-170 dollars total I have I'm this stuff (I order through Amazon because of prime shipping) I couldn't be happier. I found that the areas on my S14 that made the largest difference were behind the rear trim panels, in the void between the cabin and front side of the rear wheel wells and the driver's side door, though the passenger's side door also seemed to be a source of noise as well. When I did the front side of the rear wheel wells, I covered as much of the well as was reasonable, then covered the inner rear QP as well. Once that was done, I covered the cabin panels around the opening and finally the opening itself. Worked pretty well, though if I did it again, I think I'd pack the void with some sort of insulation/lightweight material (foam, probably) before covering. The drivers door was HUGE. I hadn't realized how much audible road noise came into the car until then. I think a large part of this has to do with the wear on the door itself, figure every time the car has been driven, the door was opened and closed twice, and then probably opened and closed one additional time for every handful of times driven. So yeah, if you've got some money and time to burn, give this stuff a shot. I'll be getting some more eventually, I'd like to do the roof and some other minor areas with it to see what differences they make. Also, I believe GT mat offers a product for under hood use, that'll probably end up on my car as well. It's really nice to be able to talk to people without yelling while the car is in motion. |

We have had a lot of request for installation pictures. Our project install is delayed right now, so here is what we have.
DISCLAIMER: This is an install that was not performed nor advised by our staff. A customer at a MECA event wanted to purchase and decided to install on the spot before the competition. The material was cut with a razor blade, hastily.
