Sound Deadener Give Away - Second Skin Forum Vendor

[Second Skin]

Hello again!

To help generate some noise about our noise and heat control products on the370z.com we are going to hold a give away.

Roughly $1500 worth of free Second Skin Sound Deadening to help reduce tire noise, or some of the more obnoxious exhaust note some of you get when modifying your Z.

We will be selecting 10 winners from this site, each of which will be getting the following sound damping products:

40 SPL Tiles
This product is a vibration damper that comes in small sheets. Simply remove the release paper and apply the tiles on the interior of the cars sheet metal, evenly spaced out through the entire car, with a bit more attention in the rear wheel wells and quarter panels.
Remember though, these product are Vibration dampers and will only address structure borne noise.

2 sheets Luxury Liner Pro
This is our best MLV noise barrier (mass loaded vinyl)
Luxury Liner Pro will go on top of the vibration mat, to reduce the transfer of airborne sound waves. These will go on top of the rear wheel wells, quarter panels, and floor surrounding the wheel wells to block out the Tire noise from the back half of the car.

If you wanted to do the entire car, to make it quiet as a new luxury car, you would use about 120 tiles and 5 sheets of Luxury Liner Pro.
The package we are giving away is just a starter kit, but will give you some pretty nice results.

You guys already get governmental healthcare, you don't need free sound deadening material.

I'm interested in this, mainly to cut back on the tire/road noise coming from the rear, but my concern is that it will knock out too much of the exhaust sound, that I love so much. The Berk exhaust is a little loud in some rpm ranges, would be good to cut some of that down, but don't want to make it go away completely. Any thoughs?

Glad a few guys are at least interested..
Hard to draw attention to the promo being stuck in my own little forum over here..
I like the forum, but it would be nice to have this posted in another area of the370z.com..
Perhaps I'll ask admin..

[sig11]

If I'm not too late to the party...

1. sig11
2. I qualify and agree. Since I'm in Michigan I would probably be on the tail end of the 6 weeks to install.
3. 2009 Solid red 6MT 370Z. Kenwood DNX9140, Fast Intentions TDX exhaust, Hotchkis sway bars. Before spring I intend to add a Stillin G3 intake. When a suitable spare tire sub box is released I plan on replacing the rest of the stock audio equipment.

4. The other website I would post on is my350z.com. If the product is as good as I hear and I expect I will be happy to spread the word and give rides at local events as well as posting in sound deadening threads. I would consider decals as well.

5. My first car was a 1996 Cavalier that I put a 12" kappa perfect sub in. One night coming back from playing paintball at 1:00AM or thereabouts in a nasty thunderstorm I hydroplaned and put the car in the ditch. The spin/bump caused my new scuba tank to collide with my 10 disc sony cd changer which received a nasty dent but never skipped.

I don't need the giveaway, but would like some pics on where to spray the spectrum in the wheel well so I have an idea of how to do it. If you have a 1/2 kit that just reduced a bit of the rear wheel noise, I'd be very interested.

1. Post your Forum user name- Corbin09

2. State that you qualify to the above terms and agree to follow through with them as they are written.- I agree to the terms above and will follow through with them.

3. Post a description of your car with current mods (if any)- 09 monterrey blue 370z Tanabe nf210 springs, custom single exit exhaust, pop chargers, and xxr wheels with nitto tires. I plan on doing audio within the next 2-3 months, but my exhaust and tire noise is UNBEARABLE. i can even post in and out car vids of before and afters.

4. Post how you plan on helping promote Second Skin, and list the other web site you will post your build log on. I would be willing to promote with my experiences on VARIOUS forums I am a member on, as well as i wouldnt mind repping a logo or two.. if it wasnt ugly, and not too big.

5. You must tell us something about yourself that nobody on this forum knows about you- I used to play paintball competitivley and I am pretty saavy at messing with cars.

[flashburn]

I'm probably late for this, but I figure I would post anyway. Like you said, not too many people notice some of these Sponsor subforums.

1. flashburn

2. I qualify and agree with all terms.

3. Zenclosure 12" with Elemental Designs Sub + Amps, Boston Acoustic SPZ60 components, Kenwood DNX9140 + Sirius/IPOD.

4. I'll post a build log on here, as well as a post on avsforum.com. I've never done Sound Deadening myself before, but was already planning on either using your product or Elemental Design's product. So my log will be taking the approach as a newbie to diy sound deadening. My previous car, an RSX, had the entire car deadened with ED, both Butyl and Closed Cell Neoprene types were used. I had a local shop do that installation. I'll also be sure to mention your product to anyone else who is looking to reduce noise in their cars.

5. Don't laugh, but my first car was a '98 Dodge Neon. Hey, it got the job done, I beat the hell out of it, and it kept me out of trouble (somewhat)!

The Gallon Kit is the smallest we offer.
1 Gallon is usually enough sound deadener to do 4 wheel wells decently well
2 Gallons is ideal for a very good sound deadening job though.

This is about as close as I can get you to wheel wells in a Z.
It is a Factory Five Roadster we did last year.
First we applied a laye rof Damplifier Pro to the wheel wells then Spectrum noise coating.

Thanks for the advice and the pictures - they were helpful. I look forward to moving forward with the sound deadening.
