Subwoofer rattles

Hi everyone. Prior to purchase, I'd heard people say Tesla have lots of rattles so I was prepared before buying that I was likely to have some. To my surprise, with the radio off (or low volume), my X is great. No NVH or rattles. Crank the sub a bit and it's a different story. Have any of you removed panels and added dynomat or other sound deadening materials? I feel like it's a pretty small nit-pick and not worth the service center's time to ask them about it and honestly, if the music is loud enough, I don't hear them but I'm curious of your experience.
 
I've had a subwoofer panel rattle for about a month. My service center is replacing the panel for me tomorrow. I'm not sure if it is a new & improved panel or not, but hopefully it will fix my rattle. I only hear it during certain bass notes, but it is definitely annoying. My service center has fixed every nit-picky thing that I've asked them to fix, so I encourage you to do the same. I can't complain one bit - the customer service here in Honolulu is outstanding.

My whole P100D interior rattles, I can't stand to listen to music with any bass in it nor drive on a road that's milled (before they repave). They owe a few other things post delivery so I'm planning on taking care of this at same time.. Build quality, at least on rattles, seems insanely unsatisfactory.
