The rear area is where most of the road noise comes from. The rear wheel wells are usually considered part of the job. The rear is also pretty easy to access - not so much the doors, &c.

Ah I get it, would it not make much of a difference to do all of them basically?

The hatch and wheelwells are easy, and make a big difference if you do it right. The doors will help too, but it's more of a PITA to get in there. The hatch is a day's work and you notice a difference immediately. DIY is really the only way to go since the material is cheap, but labor would add up.
