interesting,
I noticed it on my RCF and it was annoying, while I noticed it closing the trunk, it also rattles when your radio is turned up (sub thump) and going over bumps. Over time I noticed the vibration was damaging the paint, I had my detailer buff out as much as he could and then I installed these onto the back of the plate:
I noticed that Toyota seemed to be aware of the issue because my wife's new 2017 Camry has 4 felt bumper pads at the corners of where the plate goes, so her plate doesn't' touch the car nor rattle.

^ I just did this to my 16 200t. I superglue two of these on the lower corners of the license plate. No rattle, and not risk of anything on the plate scraping against the car.
I did the same on my 06 TSX and they lasted 10 year.

yeah I prefer to have it on the plate, putting Velcro or anything with adhesive onto the car risks paint damage. Don't care if I damage the state issued plates.

Yep. Velco strips like this: http://amzn.to/2e0mspn
Just cut to size. Been doing it for years. No rattle. Put a layer on the plate frame (the soft felt like side only) no need to use the "hook" hard side. Thin strips.

I just buy some adhesive back door weather striping foam homedepot, stick a small square on each bottom corner, and all snug with no rattles anymore.
