To reduce road noise, I would imagine that throwing MLV in the doors and rear quarter panels would give you the most benefit. Just remember that you need something like CCF to act as a buffer between sheet metal and the MLV.

I've heard about the CCF quite often; if I didn't use CCF would it be a drastic difference? In my trunk I used only MLV to reduce the exhaust note and it did a pretty good job.
Side question, is it necessary to have a perfect surround? If I use a few velcro strips to adhere the barrier to the door (not perfectly sealing every outer hole like glue would) would it be worse?
edit: After thinking about it it makes sense actually. Sound travels better through solids so creating a layer to decouple the metal from the MLV should noticably help reduce the sound. I may have to go back and stuff some CCF under my MLV in the trunk.
