Default lowered by B7, clunking sound coming from front...

So I lowered my 2 month 07 A4 with some Eibach Prokit springs (1" drop).
Clunking sounds like it's coming from both sides. I cut the bump stop in half and it SEEMED to improve, but I'm still getting that clunking when I go over little bumps in the road (mainly on streets).



Any help appreciated.

TIA

usually clunking when goin over bumps is due to loose pads or bad struts. in ur case i guess it started when u lowered it? does it clunk when u go over a big bump? also is evrything tightened down?

I highly doubt bad struts. They have 5,000 miles on them. Everything is tight in place, but I will take another look. I was just wondering if it was a bump stop issue... maybe I should cut it some more? I doubt it's a brake pad issue, I didnt even touch them.
