Rep Power: 0 RAAMmat the trunk. That will help. Not sure what to do about the spoiler because I don't have one. Pretty much all you have to do is find the rattle and then be creative on how to stop it from moving around.

Rep Power: 0 Toady I took off the plastic license plate holder that the dealer gives you and covered the back of my license plate with some RAAMmat. I also added 2 foam squares to the bottom of the license place. I am going to find some for the top so that the license place isn't lopsided, not that you can really tell though. I don't have subs yet, but I thought I might as well do it while I have the license plate off. hehe.

Rep Power: 0 i covered the back of the plate with 100% rubber weatherstrip. on the whole plate. the plate doesnt rattle anymore. the spoiler is another problem. thats the only thing rattling now. my best guess is that its something to do with the wires inside the spoiler, cause it tightened thespoiler up all the way.

Rep Power: 0 well if u have a trunk like mine i don't think the rattling will ever go away.... i brown breaded the entire trunk... used silicone to stop the lock latch thing from rattling... but brown bread behind the license plate (that didn't work, so i added 2 more screws to the bottom of the plate... that didn't work either and the plate is still rattling, the middle i guess so im gonna unscrew it and put a sponge like thing in there)... and my rear deck rattles like HELL, i gotta take care of that.

that 100% rubber weather strip is the stuff you want, sticky on one side, not on the other.
edit:
ahh just saw your ride your subs face up so you dont get too much rattle at the license plate. my box is about 1 ft away from the license plate facing it.

We don't use Dynamat here. We use RAAMmat and Brown Bread. Just thought you would like to know.[hr]

Rep Power: 0 Brown Bread is about the same as RAAMmat, except a little more messy. Its cheaper for Canadians than RAAMmat because it is made in Canada and don't have to pay all of those import taxes and stuff.

Rep Power: 0 I'm going to use Cascade. Not messy at all, lighter than Dynamat, and lasts a WHOLE lot longer. Just my $0.02
