the stuff you scraped up was probably the original stuff.

JFYI...I did a search on sound deadner and heat insulation material and B-Quiet is very very close to Dynamat as far as specs go but cheaper. I bought mine off ebay and got free shipping.

I'm actually shocked how well the stock under coating does. With no carpet, or sound deadener in my truck, it's quieter than my '90 firebird, even the wind noise is less. I can hold a normal conversation even over the roaring V8 with 4.10 gears at 65..

Check out ebay if you want sound deadener.

I picked up 50 sq feet of a cheaper alternative and it cost me $80 shipped to my door.

i think the kit is $100 for 200 sq ft... i think i can get employee discount not sure yet... long ways from that point haha gotta worry about filler and primer first
