Default tein damper problem...

I have Tein Flex coilovers installed on my car. In the peicture below you could see that on the rear left damper, the rubber bump (the yellow thing) fell out of the dust cover. The damper feels like its completely shot. I hear the clanking when I drive over bumps. Is there anything I can do? Is it possible that its because of the rubber bump that the shock is messed up?

ok, ive decided to change the whole rear setup. I want to use either koni, kyb agx, or tokico illuminas. now, i have a very important question. can i take the springs from the tein flex coilovers and use them on either one of these shocks?

first befor you do that check with tein, I think they have a life time warranty on them. and no the springs off you tein coil overs will not fit on a stock strut or a tokico, etc... etc... check it out it mite save you some money.
