I am molding my own carpet as the old was trash.
I am no stranger to that job, already have tohe rolls of carpet ready to go.

I do not want to put it down bare, as I have done in the past. What is a good, yet cost effective way to damper exterior sound?

The existing stuff was hosed. My VWs always had "sand" mats.
Looking for ideas, any help greatly appreciated.

I've ordered some of that stuff on mine
the material is very light to anything else i've found and seems to do a decent job at sound insulation

Used this in a few cars, Its waterproof takes adhesive well & has the density and thickness 3/8" to block out road noise. Found at my local Lowes home improvement store, Home Depot may have similar.
