Sound deadening the coupe

Yes/no
It will help but it's not going to be dead silent. You should notice a difference if you do your whole car. Realistically, the firewall should be done too but that is a nightmare to some extent. You will notice it on the doors. I would also do some of the foam tiles or whatever they are that Wrath recommended and the expanding foam I recommended for maximum effect or keep it simple

Yes, closed-cell foam.

Doing the doors made the biggest improvement in noise reduction that I noticed, since the doors are generally going to be the only thing between you and the wind noise of the cars beside you. The tiles on there also prevent the door skins from vibrating along with the upgraded door speakers.

Hey Naut,
Thanks for the post. However I think I miscommunicated what I'm talking about. I'm talking about the foam that I spray into the trunk door to help silence it. I think it was mentioned on the first page of this thread? I remember it saying something about window section of Lowes or something... wait one. Let me find it.

I used expanding foam inside my rear deck - pretty much any gap in the trunk got filled with it. If others are taking this on, use the stuff for around windows/doors, the minimal expanding that remains flexible. The regular expansion foam that dries hard has no flex after it's dried, so the vibration from normal driving (let alone the subwoofer) can cause it to start to break up. Also, do it SLOWLY, and don't try and fill entire gaps at once. Put masking tape over any holes or gaps it can possibly come out as well. It's nearly impossible to get the foam of of carpet, so remove or cover any in the area as well.
