Used plain scissors to cut; then my fingers, the handle of the scissors and the roller they sent to push it all down. 5 sheets @ 18 x 36 is not enough material to do it all. I started with the fender wells, then did the front floor portion right behind the seats, up and over the axle area, and a little left for the floor out in the back corners. I still have to do the floor and back wall. Ordered another 25 sq ft lot to finish the rest. If I have any left over I'm going to double up over the fender wells. The ONLY noise I'm trying to suppress is the rocks & pebbles. The tire, road and exhaust noise are all part of the sports car experience for me. Tinking pebbles are not.

By the way, doing this is a HUGE PAIN IN THE ARSE!!!!
Well reading this I dont feel so bad about having paid someone else to do it,..i am a total klutz to begin with so you can imagine what a mess I would have made!!

Keep us posted on the results...
