Default Hood supposed to be insulated?

Just got my 98 Accord back from body shop after a front-ender. Just
wondering - is the hood supposed to have insulation under it? Because
this one doesn't - it is bare metal (well, painted). Did they leave
something off?

Yes, the part guide shows that these accords have sound insulation under the
hood.

It's not that big of a deal but yes, the original has the insulation and
stickers. I wouldn't bother with the stickers unless you want to sell the
car to someone anal.

In 96, only the V6 (lx and ex) had the insulation. My 89 Legend has it, but
the accords from that year don't.
