If you're "restoring" a car, subs and amps don't usually come into the picture

Especially 4 12"s and 1kW+.

back on topic::

u should carpet right on top of the dynamat, thats the way i would of done it.

spray glue on teh dynmat and lay some carpet over it. make a boarder around the edge with some wood. etc.

im doing my trunk and speaker box in spatter paint, kinda like rhino lining... i wonder if it would look good doing that over the dynamat?

I basically did this but I unbolted the lid and added some weight on top to get the carpet down into the little recesses that I had. I used the strongest adhesive I could find and heres how it came out:

imo old cars. haveing a tweet or any other fabric covered trunk looks better.

Ya thats looks pretty nice... i might do it like that but with black carpet... What kind of glue did you use and hows it holdin up?

Another idea, although probably not as "classy" as carpet is to just use some closed cell foam. I tried the carpet thing, but it never would stay on for me. I used some 3M spray adhesive and its stayed up there for 6 months now.

i need it to look as clean as possible, it being an old car...thx for the idea though
