When putting an improved audio system in a car...

And you play it loud, something that has a lot of bass, does the car always rattle from the exterior? In other words, is this something you can't avoid from having in a car regardless of the make and model?

I've noticed some cars that are playing loud music but from the outside you can hear all kinds of rattling. Not sure if this is normal with audio systems.

Dynomat, Second Skin, and several other products can be used to dampen body panels which reduces vibration. However, it's a lot of work to completely eliminate it.

But when you say it rattles, how loud are we talking?

I want to improve the sound system on the G(07) but I don't play music at full blast.

If you add more bass it will make more noise on the outside. How much depends on how much you add.
