Default Suspension Noise - Strut Mount???

I recently (2 months ago) lowered my 5.0 mustang with FFRP P springs with no issues. Ride quality was fine. No noises. I have kept my mounts and struts/shocks stock.

Now I am developing a clunk coming from my front drive side suspension. I cant really diagnose the issue but I have verified all the bolts are tight. Don't see any metal on metal wear and the car doesn't have a ocean kind of bounce when you push it down. It goes down and comes back up quickly.

I think i'm going to take it down to ford to have them take a look at it but I don't want to leave with a bill since I add a aftermarket part.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

From everything I have read on this subject, it's probably the upper strut mounts &/or bolts. I'd first start out by checking to see if you can tighten the upper strut bolt first.
