Default Dynamat too reflective

I've read a ton of info on sound deadener but what no one ever mentions is it's reflection is annoying. My car has 5% window tint, but on sunny days I can walk by the car and see objects inside, not to mention it's hard to see clearly out the read while driving. Sure my ride is more quiet and all but having to wear sun glasses because of sound mat is silly.

I've considered adding carpet or fabric over the mat, thought about using rubberized undercoat to spray over top of it, but I don't want all my hard work to suddenly look like @$$.

My interior is currently dynomatted from the seats all the way back, any suggestions on how to reduce the glare would be greatly appreciated.

Dynamat is to be covered by your factory or aftermarket carpet, and interior plastics anyway. Like home insulation. Not to be exposed in the open. This question doesn't make sense.

You guys are right, no one ever guts a car, dampens road noise, then reinstalls all the stuff.

Noico makes a foam sound deadener, not quite as effective but it's a matte foam.

So you gutted your car, added dynamat and didn't put the interior back in?
