Full DIY disclosure, while doing the rear shocks last month, I didn't assemble the dust protector/bumper stop assembly right, and i got an extremely annoying rattle going over bumps. Even took the shock off the car but had no spring compressor as I rented it when I did the shocks, so i just jammed in some sturdy foam against the metal cup that was upside down. Well, that lasted 10 minutes and the rattle was back. I ended up taking a zip tie and attaching it to the coil spring and drilled a hole in the plastic dust shield to push up in to the metal cup. which will work until the zip tie breaks! .... Oh I didn't mention that I almost stripped the huge lower shock bolt, which will probably NEVER come out again...fun.
