^^^ yeah, it started out as just a few things I wanted to change, the next thing I knew I was taking out the entire interior and changing everything. Iv payed a lot of attention to small details such as making my dome lamp buttons look like brushed aluminum, and making sure the car has a quieter interior than it ever did. Then I thought I'd take advantage of the 5.1 DTS deck I have, so I bought a center channel speaker. A lot the thoughts came from high end luxury cars, that i decided I could incorporate in to the supra

What is the purpose of the dynamat and how much you pay for it?

Its a sound deadener and basically reduced road noise and any rattles you may notice when you close your door. Doing the entire car will bring back that new car feeling. To ensure I didn't get any rattles from that may not be cureable with the dynamat, I mounted thin foam stips around the edges and clips of parts that may rub together. It an old car and I don't expect it to be perfect, but im trying as much as I can to make it. I bought it from www.b-quiet.com and paid ~$220 for 100sq. ft. That was enough to lay the entire car from bottom up, double up on the trans tunnel, and I fell just short of completing the roof by about 2 sq.ft.

It just sticks on with a tar like backing, and then you use a roller tool to allow it to form to the contours. It very easy, but time consuming. You have to work inch by inch with 1sq. ft. pieces.
