I agree with others here that the wheelwell noise is excessive and quite annoying on certain road surfaces (shame on Nissan for cheaping out). The guys that are funny are the ones removing any sound absorption materials. 10 - 20 lbs ain't gonna make any noticeable difference in the performance of a 3000 lb car.

It worked out really good.

Thanks for the info. So did applying this just in the wheelwells quiet it enough (a lot?) or did you also have to do some sound blanket work on the inside plastic well covers also?

I appreciate any tips/suggestions.

The next step is to use the sound mat on the inside of the fender wells -inside the car and possibly some more coats of the rubber spray. I'll keep you all posted as I make progress and as to what makes the biggest difference.

just curious, will sound mat hold onto water/moisture and will it cause rust on metal parts due to holding onto moisture?
