spending thousand of bucks on soundproof could jst minimize the noise intrusion into the cabin...and its not very worthwhile.

moreover, the rubber seals on doors and windows are of 'buatan malaysia'...so u know the quality lar.. smile_big.gif

Wind sound coming in from the doors can be 75% reduced minimum by installing sound proofing tape beside the rubber seals. smile_cool.gif

actually ntc2000 got a point here. and its valid.

i have a fren who soundproof his whole car with dampening material, all doors, engine bay/firewall/boot, u name it. he done it.
still after all this, the noise difference with mine(stock) is not much. A normal passenger will not tell the difference btw my car and his.

so really, if u wan a quiet ride. change car. waja nvh really sucks..
cheers.

even if u put 2 layer for top quality sound proof material, waja also will have not much difference lar... that is the reason why i said change car instead of wasting money for those sound proof material and the outcome only a bit improved nia. Beside that, this thing is not cheap esp the wages/efforts for installing... unless u DIY, then is a difference story lar.
