I agree with BFlinn. I had our carpets replaced last year, and I investigated the pros/cons of improving the sound insulation on the doghouse.
I talked to a shop at a marina and their product was used to insulate marine engines - but mostly the enclosures have flat surfaces.
The product is very good (can't recall the name) but what I learned from them:
1) it's really expensive,
2) requires expensive adhesive that won't melt/break down in the heat,
3) is very stiff so it can't be easily bent to fit the curves (mostly compound curves). This would require cutting the stuff into small strips and would take a fair bit of time and would result in some waste.
It might be easier (and probably just as effective) to remove the carpet, apply some insulation to the top surface (it's rough fibreglas and most adhesives will stick to it). Then re-carpet.
