GTMat onyx and Dynamat Xtreme are about the same, GTMat is 70mil (feels thicker) and X is 80mil. So about the same weight based on thickness too.
The Onyx smells like new car smell, LOL
And their other stuff the asphalt one has the smell of asphalt for about a week, then it's gone.
I've used Xtreme a lot in the past to quiet down wheel wells and such, and I have no reason to go back to them anymore.
I'll tell you that I have heard X in another 370Z, and when I used their pro 50mil (granted, doubled up in some parts like the wheel wells) my sound deadening was just as good as his.
And just by the feel of the Onyx vs Xtreme, they feel about the same, the aluminum sheet on the GTMat feels a bit thicker, so watch out to not cut your fingers!
Also, I purchased 40 feet, it came in 2 boxes, those 2 boxes have 4 boxes in them.
Original packaging:
I can only assume they did it in such a nice way because if you stack or roll too much sound deadener on top of itself, the rubber squeezes out of the sides and it makes it WAYYYYY more of a PIA to install... And when you look at the WAY they packaged it, you can see the brains behind it...
(Normally you buy the stuff in a roll and material squeezes out of the sides.) they have the plastic backing hanging off two edges and they have a wax coated paper protecting the other sides in case there is some oozing.
That's legit right there.
Double Boxing:
