Sounds like noisy pillow balls in the strut tops.

Especially if the car has been lowered a fair bit and the spring preload is quite low, the pillow balls wouldn't have enough tension on them when the spring unloads over bumps, causing the rattle when they recompress.

Raise the car back up slightly and set the spring preload correctly, see if that fixes it.
