Default Wide Body Install

Hey,
Im about to get my wide body kit back from my painter this weekend. I Just had a few questions:

1. I hear of people spraying the undercarriage with some type of liner to deaden the noise. What kind of spray liner do yall use and is it recommended?

2. For the Rear Quarter panels, did any of you have to modify that padded bag that goes where the brake ducts run or did you just stuff it back in there?

3. And i also have the zr1 style splitter, do yall recommend getting the reinforcement for it? i dont race and i barely take the car over 120.

4. And if i run into any problems, is there anyone that wouldnt mind me contacting them during the install?

Thanks again!

Tony
