its cheap and all, i just feel like i don't hear much noise from the rear. If someone swears by it then i think i would get it. but i think it might be like non-noticeable or maybe a lil placebo lol
Should be installing mine here in the next few days. I'll update on any difference I notice. Suppose I could attempt to download a background noise monitoring app and test it too.

Edit: Most report it drops the cabin noise down an octave or two and makes it easier to carry on a conversation, rather than completely removes lower frequency cabin noises from the suspension.

Don't like that Chrome badge on the back, tried the vinyl overlays, but looks a little wonky for me. Bought a black badge off Amazon, shipped from China. Yes black, black plastic, no coating, and folks have griped about those fading. So I decided to throw some paint and clear coat on mine before installing. See how it turns out after drying tomorrow.

How did yours fit? I just got one from China last week and it will not snap in on the outer rim. The inner clips are good and holding it in place thankfully

I've had it for a couple months now. I guess the rear feels more "solid" going over road imperfections, but you really have to be paying attention. Lets just say if someone installed it on my car without telling me, i honestly dont think I would have noticed. But once again, it was cheap enough to try out. I ordered mine from E-ACCA at the beginning of COVID-19 lockdown in April and I didnt receive it till July.

Mine has only been in for a couple days, but so far I have noticed that road surfaces that are typically noisy (pronounced tire noise on this kind of road), are much quieter now.

Also here’s the the CM fx-500 I destroyed... also flywheel was not happy about getting launched with this clutch at 4000rpms haha, as it’s a noisy mess. These all have about 8k miles on them.
