JL Sim Lim at Serangoon Garden does it $50/per door (one layer) with Accumat.

 

If you want to DIY, it is $35 per piece (24" X 27") for Accumat whilst it costs $45 per piece for Dynamat Extreme, The Accumat is larger than the Dynamat Extreme but the latter weighs heavier. Both these 2 brands can be sourced from Autotrend at Toa Payoh Blk 1002.

This is the thread i put up in TCS (toyota club sg)forum hope it helps:-

 

SP:- cost me a bomb but worth it cos I enjoy a quiet ride. Not Lexus quiet (driven an ES300 b4) but a cheaper alternative to buying a Lexus : ) The passing motorcycle is less intrusive & road noise was greatly reduced. However the stock tyres is still noisy can't wait to change to Yko Aspec Db or BStone GR80 in 2yrs time.

 

Cost me approx $1,500 total areas done:- car floor, 4 doors, boot. (skip the roof cos no more $)

All four doors double layer ( i KS kekeke) & material is USA CAE see webpage http://www.cascadeaudio.com/ . It is one of the better quality SP available. Supposingly to be lightweight (to save fuel) but still heavy cos the balance bit & pieces the return to me was heavy when i took home. So can u imagine I did the whole car floor, 4 doors, boot!!! Next month my FC will be SIONG. But never mind now got 16% disc on petrol & of course enjoy the LEXUS quietness kekekeke

bro, u are good....saw ur posting that you spend $4k on ice...my wife will kill me for that...

 

For your info, I have also done Accumat to the external part of my door panels (7 peices costs $350, it ain't cheap either), now thinking of doing second layer and floor pan and rooftop for my Wish (too expensive if I let the audio shop to do it), so need to look for cheaper alternative and intend to DIY using Raammat instead. Going to do a mass order from US directly. kekek....

For me, I self purchase my own Dynamat Extreme bulk pack from US so still consider quite cheap, $300 for 9 pcs but still not enough for me.

 

My front door got 2 & 1/2 layers each, rear door only 1 layer, my boot door got 3 layers and 2 pcs was used on the floor pan for the driver side and front passenger area.

 

If talking about price AutoTrend not bad but if talking about skill then Chuan Sing at Serangoon Grd is good but price not cheap loh.

You can try Nam Huat (try the Jurong branch-CAE), King's Way (@ geylang-CAE), Sin Kit (Toa Payoh-Accumat), Autobaccs (Accumat). Scout around see their workmanship. Some even took digital photos which they can show you, then decide.
