cherrington17 · 03-03-2009, 08:26 PM

would 100 be enough to do the whole car?

Last time I wanted Second Skin Damplifier ANT told me he would knock 20% off the price if I ordered direct...

The pricing for Second Skin is absolutely insane. I know I mentioned it to you, but I havent check prices in some time. $3-$2.25 a sq ft... F that.

For what its worth at this point Im going to try a few alternatives...

1) Peel & Seal
2) www.fatmat.com 100 sq/ft $130 SHIPPED w/roller/knife
3) www.mcmaster.com search # 9709T39 $1.39 sq foot
4) www.b-quiet.com 50 sq/ft = $85 = $1.70 sq/ft
5) www.edesignaudio.com $1/sq foot order as you like

Ranked in order...

But if I could get damplifier for $1 sq/ft shipped or cheap shipping, I would be down for 80-100 Sq ft.

well.. then i guess we do some research, as around and see what kind of deals we can get.

obviously we have quite a few of us looking for a great deal on mat.

and sorry ryan, i guess i misunderstood what you were saying before when you were talking about prices. (misread prices on various types)

99alerogirl · 03-03-2009, 09:06 PM

i just want to do the trunk... so what, maybe 30-50ft? but i'd definitely be down. been meaning to get this stuff for awhile, but i'm cheap

adam337 · 03-03-2009, 09:12 PM

i may be in for about 100

Ryan from Ohio · 03-03-2009, 09:17 PM

Let me know and I will see what I can do. I know people.

I bet we could get Fat Mat 100 Sq ft packs for $100 shipped...

Heres the kicker:

so according to that, fatmat is decent, but damplifier is great.

99alerogirl · 03-03-2009, 10:15 PM

i have a friend who would want in on this too!

Dhoyle · 03-03-2009, 10:19 PM

yea drop me back to 100 sq ft, im in it if its for around 1$ my dad told me he doesnt want his truck done lols

jabartram · 03-03-2009, 10:23 PM

i'm running fatmat, and so far it has done well. 50 sq.ft. did my trunk lid, trunk(including spare tire well) under rear seat and both front doors fully skinned.

doing the trunk helped immensely, i had alot of road noise and exhaust noise, had the run the system at higher volumes to drown it out, after the fatmat my car is much quieter system is much cleaner sounding, worth every hour and every penny.

cherrington17 · 03-03-2009, 10:24 PM

50ft did all that?

if thats the case, i think we all need to adjust our numbers.

with the link ryan posted.. i'm just afraid of the adhesion problems fatmat might have with the freak heat and common cold we get here, year around. dark red car parked outside sealed up in the summer + subzero some nights in the winter...

i think the glue would break free after not too long.

Dhoyle · 03-03-2009, 10:25 PM

yea lmao, i was estimating maybe 180 for the whole car, then again its my first time so i bet ill have ALOT of scraps and uhm ooppsies lols?

jabartram · 03-03-2009, 10:30 PM

ive had a cheaper dampener that my brother sent me the extra he had that has been on my trunk lid for well over a year and has never even come loose, just use the roller and wipe all the dirt off, depending on where you are putting it most will be lying down anyways and held down by the weight of other things like the back seat.

Dhoyle · 03-03-2009, 10:32 PM

ok that sounds so simple i can do it

lols, hopefully, cuz i dont know shit, my mom did used to illegally dragrace, but she wont help me >.< she says its for my own good? So sadly i gotta learn on my own

install it in smaller pieces, instead of the big pieces it comes packed in. and be prepared to get dirty.

clutch1 · 03-03-2009, 10:41 PM

If we can get decent stuff for $1/sqft I suppose I'll got for 100.. my trunk rattles like you wouldn't believe!

AbHeLlRaZoR · 03-03-2009, 10:45 PM

I don't really care I just don't wanna rattle like all the other kids in town so 100 sq ft is all I will need

cherrington17 · 03-03-2009, 10:46 PM

clutch and/or ryan (and whomever else is on ca.forums) you guys want to keep us alert of any deals they have going, or see if you can't find any connections to a good price?
