I didn't take any pictures, but I put some foam rubber on the 3rd brake light and the plastic trim on the trunk to eliminate bass rattles.

I added a tow hook holder for the front plate. Now I need to repairmor replace the front bumper.

And I got a silicone license plate surround, but my plate still vibrates like OMG. Any suggestions? I'm don't want to put 2 more screws in it.

I live in Cali. I wouldn't want str8 pipes anyway. Also, I can't hear it in the cabin. I can barely hear the engine with my stereo up. Can't hear my tires. Can't hear the exhaust. My sub may be a bit loud. I just like to eliminate any rattles that distracts.

A buddy of mine used to shove a sock or two under the license plate. Sounds weird, but it worked.

Had alignment checked and to my surprise it was off quite a bit from my previous alignment done in may.

Seems weird to have it go out in a short time.
Only changes made were ARP studs and 10mm spacer.

I put Dynamat behind my rear plate, then some foam inserts where the plate contacts the trunk. No more rattles or vibration.

you can also crease the top of the plate slightly so tightening the screws pushes the bottom edge into the car.
