hey guys and girls, just finished my sound system in my VY S II and i have dynamatted the front doors and the boot lid. is there some sort of boot trim that i can buy to cover up the dynamat?
was there a factory option for a carpeted boot lid cover to hide the underside of the boot lid?

thanks

awesome thanks guys!! i didnt apply the dynamat myself, i had it done when i got my speakers and amp installed by the pros. my god it makes a difference, spesh for the sub in the back, i highly recomend it. i dont have any pics on my laptop atm but, i did however see how they applied it and it looks very easy. all they did was remove the backing of the dynamat sheets, slap it on the inside of the door/boot lid, and they used a small metal roller to really work the dynamat sheeting into all the groves and contours of the car paneling making sure to push out as much air pockets as possible. it was a really cold day when they were doing it so the used a heat gum to gently soften the sheeting. if you would like some picks just post or PM me your email and il happily send you some picks :) im also making a ride thread soon when i wash my car so there will be tons of pics on there haha.

no probs, il take a bunch of pics for you tomorrow arvo and il attach them to an email. (btw, my next car is going to be a subaru STI so im liking your email adress haha)
for the boot lid, there is all the structural suport which is spot welded to the actual boot skin, this has alot of contours and holes, and bumps all over the place. the dynamt sheeting is pretty flexible and will work into all these groves. u really need to work it in, make sure u get as much air bubbles out as possible. place your sheet on the boot lid and just lightly attach it to the metal so that it doesnt fall down when the boot is up. start working it in with a small roller from the centre out. starting from the centre insures minimal air pockets and best coverage.

its pretty simple, just take your time and you will love the end result.
