Recently Lowered my car (Clunking sound)

So i recently lowered my car on the "Pwrhaus MK7 / 8V Coilover Kit" from BFI. I got the coils from my buddy who had previously run them on his MK7 golf. So, upon installing them I've noticed that every time I go up or down my driveway or any thing that seems to have a lip thats not really flush with the road I hear some sort of clunking coming from the front area of my car more towards front left and right suspension area. I read it might be end links causing the sound but I just want some input from others.

Thanks.

This has been answered countless times, but..

Check to make sure you coupled the bearing and the mount to themselves properly and that the notch is facing the engine. Check the top strut nut. Check the mount bolts.

Your endlinks may be loose or simply done depending on the age of the car. Depending how low you went, you may need adjustable ones, but that's not usually a thing unless you're on adjustable coilovers.
