Muh Sound Proofing

Honestly a very easy install. The precuts are worth it in my humble opinion. Like others have said the material is very forgiving and the holes won't perfectly match up but it's not a problem because you can just manipulate the material around holes. On that note this stuff will 100% slice your finger tips if you careless run your hand over it, so wear gloves or be mindful with your movements. The excess material can go back behind the door or used to rattle proof the truck lid (like I did) and I still had some left over. If you're running stock door speakers just swap them out while your down there you gotta take the speakers out anyway for install. Took me ~ 4 hours and that's doing all 4 doors and replacing the speakers. Take your time don't rush it all it'll be peachy.
Pros: Easy to apply, works very well, plenty of excess for other areas
Cons: Sharp metal will slice your little piggies

DO IT

I PUT THIS ON MY 2018 WRX. I was a little skeptical at first to know how much it would cut down on the road noise, but after taking the first drive and being able to hear the music without having to turn the volume up 3/4 of the way was amazing. I am now able to have a normal conversation without having to shout at my passenger. The installation is very straightforward, I even went above and beyond putting the excess material on the putter sheet metal. I would highly recommend this to anyone with an STI/WRX
Pros: Sound control, easy to install, easy to work with
Cons: Sharp metal

Do it.

If you're on the fence about this, do it. Makes a big difference. Even without music, this helps with road noise greatly. Also makes the music sound better because you're not trying to overcome the road noise. Yes installation is a bit of a pain but totally worth it. I'm going to buy more for trunk eventually.

Don't underestimate what this is! Makes a 150% difference

If anyone owns a WRX or even a WRX STI then you know the doors sound like a hollow tin can. This product did wonders, it took 4 hours to install the Sound Skin. I ordered the Precuts and well worth it because you then don't have to create a templates. The extra material that you get with the precuts is perfect. It goes on the inside of the hollow part of the door. After doing a complete installation, followed by a test drive I couldn't believe the difference. It sounded like I was more in a luxury car vs a compact sedan. Now, since you have the doors apart its ideal to upgrade speakers. I bought the Alpine audio 6 1/2" speakers and kicker tweeters. I gotta say you will love your vehicle much more by doing this. The stock speakers are trash. I hope this helps someone else. Also the Material is extremely forgiving, videos were saying you need to take all the wires off the doors to install. You don't have to, just loosen up most of what you can. Rip or cut the Sound skin where you need to and lay it behind the wires and if the seam bothers you gorilla tape the seams shut. I don't usually make a post or review products but this stuff kicks and will absolutely use this on any vehicle I buy in the future.
Pros: Easy installation Forgiving if you need to pull a piece off weather proof they give you extra the laser cut is the way to go
Cons: none, absolutely none! keep making this stuff!!

Overall the quality of these skins are amazing. Theyre not perfect by any means but it makes it so much easier than making my own door skin. They come bunched up due to being shipped but I don't think there's anything that can be done about that. But overall I love it. Helped knock the road noise down in my car a lot

Speakers aren't cut out- and maybe for good reason, but know these are not ready to go. You will still have to do a lot of trim and the material is very very tacky- you will not have second chances to move it around if you make a mistake. The driver power window harness requires considerable disassembly of the door panel itself- this is not Soundskins fault, but it is also not mentioned when you buy this WRX specific product. It comes with very limited instructions. This would fine it was a generic product for any car, but they literally include pics of a WRX installation. Very sneaky- my guess is they'd sell far fewer of these if they were more transparent.
