rattling noise

so i'm getting this rattling noise on my side air vents and doors. it's a "tap tap tap tap" and it only happens over rough roads/freeways. i took it to honda and they said they won't cover it on warrenty cause i lowered my car?.... weird so i'm just seeing if anyone here had this problem and if so how they solved it.

thanks!

Mine makes that noise, but I think it's the shocks if it's coming from outside

it is most likely the struts and no, the dealer won't cover it under warranty if you have lowered your car. are the struts factory? if so, make sure the 3 bolts on top of the stut tower are tight...very tight. If you have access to an air gun, use it.

AR will become famous soon enough
is it in the interior or on the outside? thats probably cause its from your suspension. . . if its coming from outside, plus they siad they wont cover it cause youre cars dropped.
