I remember seeing a thread ( possibly on this forum) that showed a detailed disassembly of almost the entire G35 interior from front to trunk area with replacement of insulation and felt wherever feasable. It looked like a restoration job with everthing being removed. How many owners will be willing to do this anyway? The fit and finish on our cars is inherently crappy and there is not a whole lot that can be done. Thank God here in Florida the roads are smooth and I still have more rattles than I can count......... with new ones everyday.

When I first bought my car used, it had rattles everywhere. Mirror, center console, glove box, AC vents, everything.
I took most of it apart, and put camper liner foam tape everywhere where plastic meets up with plastic. Everytime I took something apart in the interior, I added more of the foam tape. I installed a PAC AAi-Nis2 recently, so same thing. Foam tape everywhere.
Car's nearly silent on the road. Once in a while I'll get a little click here in there from the roof lining if I go on fairly rough road. You can buy that camper tape at Autozone/pep boys for about $10. I've gone through about 3 rolls of that stuff.
