b-quiet sound deadening. based out of calgary i think. i purchased it a few years ago and at the time it was the best bang for the buck.
i think 2 rolls cost me around $200 shipped, no duties no nothing.
2 rolls will do 1.5 cars if you put it everywhere.

i was out with it over the weekend and while i drifted the tail end from 1 through 3rd i giggled like a baby. tania said she has never heard me laugh like that..... im relieved in a way, allthough there is still alot to do on it. this car is more then just a cool ride to me and you know that. there is a lot riding on it as a symbol of things to come i hope.
thanks for all your help, patience and knowledge, if it wasnt for yours though, i wouldnt have mine.
