Fun with deadener

Got both doors fully covered in b-quiet ultimate now. They are solid as hell. There were a few big holes that got 3 layers, and a full layer everywhere else. What a difference in the mid bass now. Can almost turn the subs off for some stuff. LOL Deeper and much tighter, punchier now. BigRedGuy is letting me borrow a 6.5" Fosgate coax he had laying around until I get the new components. It sounds almost as good as it did. We also made new mounting rings as the old ones were both split in a couple spots and wouldn't have sealed too well. Both doors should be almost totally sealed off now. Hopefully will have everything redone before the June 14th show. I figure for $300 or less incl the new components I can improve my SQ score by quite a bit. Still have a bit of b-quiet left too, might be enough for the trunk lid. BRG picked up a roller, makes it much easier. Couple of obligatory pics....


Shiny silver door.

What a PITA to do, the whole time thinking this had better be worth it. Well so far first impression is it seems to make a huge difference, well worth it. Let me know what you think.

Don't touch anything you don't want black spots on while doing it. Cover all carpet and trim, if it even touches it will stick for good. Make sure you have a roller, makes it a lot easier. Be prepared to spend some time, took about 3hrs / door. Let me know if you want a hand.

hahahah I knew you had too much power going to them when you told me. I am sure you will like the new ones though, I am pretty sure I have heard them before.
