steve's custom porsche rsr
With a custom creation from world famous West Coast Customs, comes the quality addition of Second Skin products to solve the sound and heat issues. This Porsche RSR has truly been one of the most ambitious projects we have taken on with West Coast Customs. Over the span of three years, they have completely restored it to mint specification while still giving it the classic west coast customs treatment. Every nut and bolt has been hand picked in order to keep this build authentic to its original Porsche heritage. They also want to give a huge shoutout to Dixxon Flannel Co. for helping us breathe new life into the car by creating a one of a kind interior from the very fabric they use to make their awesome clothing. We hope you enjoy the full build process, we have plenty of other awesome projects coming soon!
West Coast Customs: "When we need to quite down a ride, we choose Second Skin"
This project used 55 sqft of Damplifier Pro for the floor, doors, and rear engine hood. 24 sqf Heat Wave Pro was used under the carpet as well.

What a beautiful interior collaboration with Dixxon Flannel Co.

STEVEN D's 1999 ACURA integra
This client came in with this Porsche 911 Targa and complained on how he hates driving this car just because how loud the road noise was. The car sat so much that the battery is completely shot in it. So we had to get this right for him so he can fall back in love with this car. Well we treated all the floors, doors and door panels with Second Skin Audio and this completely strengthened and eliminated road noise. The client was so excited to pick up the vehicle but honestly didn’t know what to expect. An hour after he picked up his car he called us and said it’s literally 99% better and now he is pulling up to the Porsche dealership to get a new battery so he can start driving this every day. We love what we do and we do it right the first time…. Make sure y’all spend the hard earned money right the first time with the right shop. Only at Sound Evolution.

Check out that outer skin with the Damplifier Pro...looking very nice!
Followed up by the inner skin getting that Damplifier Pro goodness.
Don't forget to strengthen that door panel with some strategic CLD placement.
Cleaning the metal with denatured alcohol and starting the sound deadening.
Slapping on full coverage of the Damplifier Pro across the floor.
And to get that Porsche real quiet inside, add the Luxury Liner Pro sound blocker across the entire floor. Bye bye road noise.
Getting MLV across the entire floor is key to maximum noise reduction.

dave's porsche 911 turbo build
When you have a turbo and exhaust upgrades, it takes mass loaded vinyl to solve the sound issues. Dave ordered the Mid Sized Car Build Package with 55 sq ft of Damplifier Pro and 45 sq ft of Luxury Liner Pro. Dave also got a sheet of Heat Wave Pro sheet for thermal insulation on the ceiling. After skinning the entire floor, doors, and ceiling with Damplifier Pro (about 60% coverage), Dave installed the Luxury Liner Pro on the floor and back wall at 100% coverage. To finish up, he put the Heat Wave Pro on the ceiling. It only took about 12 sqft to completely cover the Damplifier Pro and add a good amount of insulation above the headliner.
Straight from Dave: "Second Skin products are the best! They are easy to use, ship fast, and keep the car very quiet and cool! We have used other products in the past but now we use Second Skin exclusively! Ma halo Second Skin."
Winner, winner! Dave has won numerous awards. It's always cool when the Michelin man shows up to check out your ride.
Dave' installed Damplifier Pro in a checkerboard pattern on the floor of his Porsche 911 Turbo. This is the best strategy when using the 60% coverage method.
A little Damplifier Pro on the back wall of the Carrera. It doesn't take much with a deadener this good!
100% coverage with Luxury Liner Pro mass loaded vinyl on the back wall is key to blocking out the engine, turbo, and exhaust noise in a rear engine vehicle like the Porsche.
After working his way down the back wall of the Carrera, Dave applied Luxury Liner Pro with as close to 100% coverage as he could on the floor.
After applying Damplifier Pro in 60% coverage on the ceiling, Dave used Heat Wave Pro to add thermal and sound insulation.
All done with the insulation install. Let's get the upholstery back in there!
The key to getting everything to fit back together like a glove is to take notes/pics as you go. Take your time and always cut around areas that may have thin clearance issues or mounting brackets.
Always love a very professional install. Now get out there and enjoy the new silence of your ride!!!
