Just compress that corner with a jack and see what's touching.

Will do. I'm thinking it's a portion that I can't see behind the strut still making contact. At this rate I'm just going to pull the suspension apart again to check.

Just want to provide an update in case anyone finds themselves in the same situation. It was, in fact, a lack of coil silencers are the very top portion of my coils.

The first picture shows the initial wrap I installed (brown). Second picture shows where there was still a contact point which I subsequently wrapped this weekend. Clunking noise is entirely gone now.

I also ran into the same issue, but I am unsure how the springs were installed (brought to a shop)

What is a fix? Will getting aftermarket coilovers solve this?
