Default Road noise

I have found that most of the unwanted road noise is from the rear. I just finished putting on Takeda CAI and Invidia Q300 exhaust. While I had the car up I noticed that the under the rear where the spare sits is just plain aluminum with out any undercoat like the rest of the vehicle. Need to take a look at that more closely. I am going to purchase some sound deadening material , do not know which one yet and start in the rear hatch area and also under the rear of the car with some spray material. I will try to borrow a noise meter which measures the decbels and see it I can make a determination as to where the most noise is coming from.

Good news is that when I get on the throttle the only thing I hear is the CAI and the sound of the exhaust. Bad news is when I try to be easy on the ( which is almost never) gas I hear the road noise.
