my lead sheet sound-proofing melted....

Actually, I am on a quest to tighten, bond, re-pad, etc. to achieve a level of genuine sound reduction (really excessive noise, anyway). I've got some lightweight material similar to that pictured that I am going to use to replace my existing pad. Speaking of lead, it is probably half the weight of the original stuff! I cut a small rectangle and put it into the top of the engine lid, in front of the drip tray. it made an enormous difference. I may put a few foam peices (bumpy mattress pad stuff) in the doors and other vibration prone, fairly flat panals. This all started after I got new shocks and realized it didn't have to be like a coffe grinder inside the car. Sure, I don't wanna add 50 lbs of stuff, but if I can use better, modern materials I can get a genuine improvement (I hope)
