Leaking KW V1 - Front Driver Side

So it looks like my KW V1 front driver coilover is leaking. Can someone confirm this from their past experience with them? First pic is of leaking one, followed by the other good ones. I know the warranty process takes about a month, but this is my daily driver. What have you all done in this situation?
