Remove the spoiler led and put some thin pieces of rubber between it and the spoiler. Or you can do what i did to mine: silicone it to the spoiler.

It wasnt as easy as sweetsound said.. for me

I put rubber in mine when it rattled REAL bad... that didnt fix it. I put in sticky backed felt things, that didnt fix it. So, I finally found the problem.

I removed the brake light, and it was actually the strip of LED's inside of it rattling against the casing of the spoiler brake light. I drilled um I think 6 holes in the top of the brake light, and shot that expanding foam that you use in houses for insulation or something... I shot that down the wholes behind the LED strip to hold it in place. No more rattle from that. Now you'll find about 2,000 other as time goes on - goodluck.
