RAAM mat discount for 7thgen civic members untill march 31st

2k2civic got the deal $79 a for a 62.5sq.ft roll of RAAM60 (outperforms Dynamat extreme)...Easier to work with. Here's a Hint Dynamat extreme is $204.99 for a mere 36sq.ft. This is as good a deal as it gets. 1 roll can do both your doors and Under your hood. This will reduce road Noise Drastically. For you sound guys like me. 3 rolls will do your whole car with multiple layers in some places.... I have another product in my can and 165sq.ft has my car running quieter than my uncles Lexus ES300. .. email him at raam@raamaudio.com

Cheers
Mohawk

This is a pretty good deal. I got 100sq.ft. for $65 of this Pergo SilentStep stuff from Home Depot, but I barely started the roll since you have to spray on your own adhesive. The RAAM60 has it's own adhesive backing. I would get this stuff if I didn't have a roll of the stuff I got lying around.

I bought a roll from him a while back and I did my entire trunk and rear panel and dash. it made a huge difference. I was happy as it was but now since there's a special i'll get it again and do my hood and doors... can't beat a quiet ride!!

i give this product if that's what you're waiting for then there you go.

my seal of approval !

it takes regular UPS times... that's how he shipps it. he'll give oyu a tracking number and oyu can watch it get to your place.

the prefered payment is PayPal but i bet you can work other stuff out.

Hello all.... I wrote, and this is the response.. I thought it to be pretty important. First Reply/Posting response for me. Here is the excerpt fromt eh email received.
" If you send me your zip code I will let you know the total shipped to your door. Please post that I do not recommend it for under the hood, I have so many orders and emails coming in right now I can barely keep up so this would help alot if you posted it for me as I am not a member of that forum.
I prefer Paypal but do require the customers to have a verified shipping address set up with them. If not money orders are fine, just let me know!
Thanks and have a great day,
Rick
RAAMaudio "

Take care all... Tommy [IMG]i/expressions/beer_yum.gif[/IMG] [IMG]i/expressions/beer_yum.gif[/IMG]

.44lbs/ sq.ft ... Weight doesn't always eman better damping. It's a Bitumen based product and damps much better than Asphalt based deadeners of the same weight.. This stuff performs as well as Dynamat Extreme, Has a better adhesive.. more felxible.. easier to work with

I was asking because I didn't want to be adding a lot of weight to my car. It's slow enough as it is. I wasn't talking about quality.

heh, yeah you're right lol

im planning to order some of this stuff, but the only thing is that 3 rolls will cost like $50 to ship to me. im wondering if maybe i should stick with 2 rolls...if i only do 1 layer all around would that still be enough for my entire car with 2 rolls?

Great guy(Rick), great product, I've got 4 rolls(200sq ft) of RAAM Mat sitting here waiting for me to install it. Ordered it from him last November, through a similar promo on EliteCarAudio.com. You guys won't be dissappointed.

2 rolls is enough.. if you only get 2 don't do the whole car in one layer. Do your trunk, 2 layers in the doors, 2 layers for the door skin. 2 layers on your firewall. Use whatervers left to do the rest of your floor. The Doors and Firewall are where 80% of your road noise come from.. your trunk well if you have a system it's pretty important on our cars because there's alot of flex in the sheetmetal.

Cheers

is the firewall the place that seperates the engine from the inside of the car? the wall that is behind the dash and glove box and all that fun stuff? I've done a lot of systems, but I have never used sound deadening material before. should be a new adventure for me. I am ordering mine on Friday.

I assume you pull up the carpet and stick it on. hehe. I'm pretty sure it would be quite difficult to get it in the spots behind the dash. I think they are mainly talking about the part where your feet go and up as far as you can go.
