That noisekiller being foil lined looks like it would be easy to clean... The OEM stuff soaks up oil and grit like s**t on a stick.

 

You could always lacquer the foil a dif colour if you didn't like the shiny surface

if you keep your oil filler cap on, it won't spray on the inside of the bonnet :wink:

Thanks Captain! but... should I leave the cylinder head bolts off in that case? i like to let my engine breath you know.... :tongue:

 

don't you find that the oem stuff does accumulate dirt though? after 20years on the car and countless dirty roads driven mine are quite mingging

tbh a lot of the dynamaty-type of stuff wont do much, just stop panel vibration. the acoustic foams are the ones that stop airborne noise, which is whats needed. well, a combination of both.
