No more trunk rattle...

Ok, so I did some searching and after installing my new sound system I found the DIY on stopping your trunk from rattleing. Works great. Now I have another problem that I can't find an answer to. My trunk doesn't rattle when the bass drops but the hood does. Any suggestions?

So your hood, as in up front, rattles? I'd try to isolate what it rattling first.

Use aluminum backed mat on your hood and expanding foam.

errr YOUR ALL WRONG... lol... use the rubber stoppers i think theres two or four.. not sure... but my hood used to rattle like a ****.. til i unscrewed the rubber stopers alil bit and the hood closed snug. becaful not to pull them out too much though cause the hood will sit higher then the fenders when its closed... the same goes for the doors if they rattle... the trunk has them too .but the DIY of lowering the hinge works best for the trunk
