You can get Dynamat at any audio shops.

Anybody inquire about a carbon fiber hood replacement for the LS? That alone would probably shave off a few pounds on our hefty ride dont you think? Im pretty sure its going to be a custom one off type since I havent seen anybody with one yet.

No, that fabric-type thing is either insulation or a new sound deadener that is not yet commercially avaliable. Use dynomat extreme.
