Help identifying sound. Newly rebuilt coilovers installed.

Just updating. Rebuilder took the dampers in and checked it. They did dyno them even with the whole coilovers assembled. They were unable to reproduced the noise in the said video and graph shows that they are working fine. They replaced the top spring perch for the fronts just to see if that could be the cause due to a little play on them. The noise is still consistent in low speed and does sound like a loose top nut but they are all tight even at the bottom being an inverted dampers when I checked. I tried their advice of just installing the fronts and see if the noise is still there, and yes it was there but not much then when I installed the rears it was more apparent. I gave a triple check again when I installed them and all nuts and bolts are torqued to spec. Next step is bringing the car in and they will check it themselves and help me out sourcing that noise.
