Nice work bro. That is about what the front half of my vette looks like, lots of rapp and listen work. The sub half has a ton though, need to fix that now that it is a race car heh.

I wish I knew this years ago, before I plastered every square inch of a car with damping mat. Uselessly adding weight and cost.

I'm still a fan of increasing mass on panels and stiffening in general, hence the sludge application.
