I heard Fatmat is very good, i think 200Sq will be enough for all doors,trunk , and interior maybe need more but i think it will be enough.

I used FatMat. It comes in rolls. Two would be more than enough.

I used Fatmat for my car. You can buy two rolls off their website which is 100sq ft. Comes out to about $130 shipped. Should be more than enough to do the entire vehicle.
