Sound Deadening - most effective?
What is the best bang for the buck as far as bringing the in-cabin sound level down. I guess I'd also consider best bang for time involved. I rather not remove the entire interior.
From my own ears it seems like a lot of noise comes from the wheel wells. Is coating the wheel wells (on the outside) the best bet? Also, a lot of people seems to cover the wheel well with metal tape stuff. Is that area a prime culprit? |

In that case, I'd suggest ear plugs.

I used the spray and aluminum tape method and noticed a difference, but I had to tear down the interior. Given the amount of reduction I got from that I can't imagine you having much luck only hitting the underside of the fender liners. There are a few threads around that go into great detail on the subject...

I notice alot of wind noise at freeway speed. You can squeeze in foam caulk rope into your door seal to provide a even tighter seal to prevent wind noise.
