It took a full 5 days for me to notice the complete effects this product offers. The cabin did sound moe quiet at first but got substantially better over time.
I too have debated doing the floorboards and at first I thought it wasn't necessary, however now that I have gotten used to the sound I may reconsider.
I have about a 1/2 gallon of quietcoat left and I am going to do the doors and rear wheel wells and then see from there.

My 1 gallon Quietcar container was only 3/4 full, I contacted them last Monday and they will send me a 32 oz container. When you received your order, making sure that the container is full.
The car is quieter than before, 5 days after I applied the Quietcoat to the trunk only. I used to turn the volume of my Nakamichi HU at 30 at city speed of about 45 mph, now I only turn it up to 25 - 26.
Checking the rear wheel wells, I saw that there is some kind of undercoating already there, I will not do the rear wheel wells. I will try to apply 2-3 coats under the car, specially, on the shiny aluminum 'plate' above the differential, and around the transmission/drive-shaft tunnel. I am not going to do the rear tray, since I have RSX Bose Sub in the spare tire well, if I do the rear tray, it will block most the bass from the sub.
I think that Quietcar is a good product, very easy to use and the price is fair. I am glad that I found this thread.
Thanks you Zeniac

HECK NO!
In my case I am balancing what I think a sports car should sound like, maintaining my investment in good stereo sound, and knocking down the 3-4k drone in aftermarket exhausts.
The factory exhaust is TOO quiet for this car.

I have seen a few posters saying they like the sound as is (I will assume they have stock exhausts and don't suffer from the drone! 
)
Do any of you who have used QuietCar regret using it? I.e., quieted the car down too much??

Just giving this a bump so people don't forget about it. I'm still waiting for my stuff to arive, it's been 11 days since I placed my order. I guess I should of picked a quicker shipping method.
Anyone have anymore info or updates on this product?
