Default Loud popping after lowering

I have a loud popping on the front end of the car after installing pro-kit/d-spec combo last weekend. I added that adjustable panhard bar and brace for the rear end alingment and had the front aligned and all is well other than the popping. It only occurs when I pull into my driveway. I plan to get heavy duty strut mounts to resolve the popping. The issue is I can't afford them until about a month from know. Will waiting do any damage to the strut if I wait. The car is my DD.

Thanks Hufenstang. I am not under warranty anymore. That is one long thread. It only started after lowering. Hopefully the heavy duty strut mounts will solve the problem.
