hate to ttt this, but figured it's old and many haven't seen it. living in pa and dealing with crappy winters, i'm gonna do this in the summer as well as the undercarriage of the car. old car rusted big time..fuel line, brake line, exhaust, muffler.

I think if a product like Second Skin audio Spectrum or Quietcar was used to coat the wheel wells, it would work really well to get rid of road noise. I am planning on doing this.

Same in Canada. The entire wheel well has black plastic housing that snaps in. You can even see the holes for the housing to snap into, in the spray project pictures people have snapped.

Here are some pictures of the front wheel wells. Maybe everyone has the same thing already.

Sorry for the filthy car. Everything is slush, grit, ice, and salt during winter here.

No rubberizing on my car, just white paint up under there. Not only is it ugly, but the undercoating will cut down on noise.

I used the canned Herculiner from Pep Boys, on mine over a weekend (2 coats), It looks great, and I even used the excess for the bottom underneath as well. I am well protected for the salty winter months here in Jersey!
