I've been looking into something to help deaden a bit of the muffler drone at highway speed. It's only annoying on those 9 hour trips. I'm not putting J pipes on and dont like the idea of sticking mats to the metal in the trunk. Has anyone tried a thick moving mat in the trunk to take the edge off the drone? They sell these for $4.50 at Harbor Freight so I thought what the heck, I'll give it a try.

I have a really thick trunk mat from Lloyd's on top of the factory mat and does not make a lot of difference.

The noise comes mainly through the fenders... you'd have to line the inside of the trunk.
