Rattle when idling coming from clutch mechanism?

I was in a minor accident a while ago and now that (most of) my car is fixed I notice that it idles loud in neutral like something's rattling. But once I depress the clutch, everything goes dead quiet. Is there any way I can check the clutch mechanism? I don't think reaching it will be an issue since I have an intake. Otherwise, I'm going to check the grounding mounts that came with the intake and such.

I have something similar, but it's not a rattle ... it's like a very light squeaking sound ... nothing too serious or unbearable. Goes away when I depress the clutch even just lightly ... I can live with it.

I could live with it too however...

Since I've been in an accident I don't want it to get worse.

My clutch doesn't slip at all, sorry to say. But if your clutch is slipping, you need a new clutch.

"Wheelie?" What's a wheelie? A wheelie from what I know is when you have a vehicle composed of two wheels and you lift the front wheel off the ground.

If you're asking me what kind of wheels I'm using, those are 99-00 Si (or 03 EX Coupe) wheels. They are 15s.
