Your drum set seems to be in a bad position...I dont think its going to sound well with the kick drum facing right in front of a wall like that. unless its an electronic drum set?
People are saying the thin layer of plastic is ok for bass traps. It only reflects some high frequencies which can be fixed by adding some thin layer of foam in front of it if necessary. I wonder what material they use for commercial product.

I would swap the couch and drum position when tracking drums. The kit is only there so it can stay in the room.
