So I've been tossing around the idea of getting rid of my E for the last 6 months or so. The main reason being my wife and I cant stand the road noise! I never thought much of it until I moved to the city and bought a Hyundai Sonata. Now the E seems very loud. I was dreding having car payments again when it came to me that maybe I should look into Dynamat. I went to a shop that installs it today and they said it would be $810.00 to use Xtream Dynamat on the doors, rear quarter, tire compartment, and back tailgate. Its basicly this:

But with the top part of the back door and the spare tire area as well.
What do you guys think? Is that a good price? Is it worth it? I'd love to hear from someone thats done it before.
I also dont know how much of the road noise comes from my tires? Maybe if I got ones that were made for low noise? The tires I have now are Continental Sport LX cheapys from walmart.
I figure the $800 is much less than the $10-20k it would cost to buy a new car! Plus I like everything else about the E.
