Front End Clunking at low speed

Hello all, I have fitted new suspension and new brake pads from endless and the suspension is 5100 series from AST,

I have noticed a clunky sound almost every time I set off but only at literally very very slow speed, sometimes at full lock and sometimes as I am coming to a stop, as if when the car rocks back and forward there's a clunky noise from the front end.

I've been told it's the fact is sport suspension and it tends to be noisy, just wanted to find out if anyone else has experienced this, could also be brakes sticking as they are brand new. But I think it's the suspension.

Other then that the suspension is fantastic the car grip is out of this world. Literally have so much confidence throwing it into corners and not realising I'm doing 120mph

I think I have this too - totally stock. I thought maybe it was rocks in the heat shield or something, but not sure.

Double check the tightness of ride height adjustment jam nuts.

I keep a couple of these in my tool bag, as mine will get loose during a track weekend.
I have MCS 1-way adjustable.

It turned out to be brake pads, they didn't have the shin on the back so they have room to expand under heavy usage!
