Wind noise around door frames or windows?

How "treatable" is wind noise? Is there anything the dealer can to do try to reduce or eliminate wind noise? Door or window adjustments?

It seems like the driver side has some noise compared to anywhere else in the car. It's not really bad, but it is there. And it's probably most noticeable because the care is so quiet, otherwise.

Is this something folks have been able to have taken care of?

Thanks in advance!

I'm not that familiar with the CM yet since we haven't received ours but if there is a round hole molded in the gasket around the door I know that a lot of guys with Superduty's were solving that problem by pulling a piece of weed wacker cord through the gasket to stiffen it up. Made the door a bit harder to close tightly but it sealed it up a lot better.

I dont have wind noise , all I can hear are the 17" run flats on my CM...
you'd have to install dynamat to lower the noise floor further which isn't cheap.
