None at all except the bottom of the drain plugs which I removed, sanded it off, painted and then siliconed back in. The car is %80 rust free now, just have some surface rust forming behind the front grill, which I'll get to soon.

I haven't checked carbuilders, but I find most of that sh*t way overpriced. I've used this stuff before in the hilux and it does a good enough job.

Nah it's an acoustic liner nice and soft so carpet will feel good on your feet. Basically the paint that you put down is going to do nothing to block frequencies that most commonly occur under the car. Also not too expensive.

Ohh, that's actually exactly what I'm after. I think it already had something similar under the old carpet. I've got a mate that owns a boat building business, was going to go check out his marine carpet as an option cos I know it will be free lol

Some fuckstain has welded a cat into the exhaust, making it impossible to remove without dropping both fuel tanks and diff... So I cut it off.
Holy f**k it's loud with half an exhaust, straight thru pipes would sound insane. So lumpy
