Looking good and alot of hard work there. 
is it also good to do this if you plan to have a stripped out corsa to reduce road noise?

road noise is less, but not lots less, tbh if you strip it id rather have a bit more noise than add a ton of weight to reduce it slightly...
makes a fair difference to exhaust noise tho...

just looked at the pictures again and  
I definitely want my doors and boot doing. Might not bother with the rear panels because it's a pain in the ass to be honest.
With regards to road noise, would you say it cuts some out? Does it depend on how many layers you use?

say for like me where I dont have enough money to do that all at once where would you recommend concentrating on first? Ive got one layer in the boot so far but none anywhere else! Do you think I'd benefit from doing the doors next seen as though I havent got any in the doors so far?
