That is a good site, but a lot of it is overkill for most vehicles. On average you really just need the 50% surface area of CLD, and some CCF in the doors.
Yeah, I only picked up 25 ft^2 of GTMAT Ultra (80 mil) and still have some left over. I did about 50% on the outer skin and 50% of the inner skin in the doors, 50% on the trunk lid, and maybe 30% around the spare tire area. Not quite sure where to put the rest of my GTMAT.... Behind the doors on the car skin next to the rear seats, more underneath the spare, around the wheel well, ?

I just don't want to put much more on the trunk lid cause I'm afraid it'd be too heavy to automatically open at some point. I don't really want to go into the roofline to get any in there. I just want to put it somewhere where it'd make the biggest difference.
