Just put the new system in and of course the wing rattles like crazy. Im just trying to see how others coped with this issue. I was either going to dynamat it or foam, but i was wondering if theres any other way. Any help is appreciated.
 
I used dynamat but I've seen others use a strip of weather stripping. Either one will solve that problem.
 
Thanks. I dont know though... I mean, my bass is so loud, I can barely even hear the rattling, haha ;)

Definatly on my to-do list this week.
 
Yep, thanks.. ill be sure to do this today before work. I'll also be making my IC sprayer today as well.
 
Yes, definately get the wing taken care of, of course more will always surface as soon as you get one taken care of. But atleast your car won't sound superghetto from the outside anymore.

Dynomat? Where in your wing would that go and solve any problems? Weather stripping in the right spots is by FAR the tool for the job, it becomes obvious, just put it wherever there's 2 plastic panels just touching against eachother, which in the spoiler is prettymuch the whole thing. Make sure to get aroudn the LED brakelight thing really well.
 
go with the weatherstripping. it much cheaper, very easy to apply, and it killed about 98% of my rattling. of course, if you have a ton of bass then your rear bumper and muffler heatshield is going to rattle.....
 
Weather stripping is the way to go.

As for undercar rattlings, goto your local Auto parts store and buy the cheap cans of Rubberized undercar spray. Spray on the underneath of your car near muffler and any where esle to minimize the rattling. You will also notice that the inside your car is quiter too.

I had extra dynamat from doing my speakers so I figured why go out and buy s*** when I already have something. It works just fine...
