Noise over uneven road

Got my 325i Sport lowered 35mm a few days ago. When out and about this evening I noticed a knocking noise from the passenger side fron wheel area. Only when rolling to a stop or over bumps etc.

The noise is not there when driving at normal speed.

Is it likely to be a drop link of ball joint??

Could be top mounts, i had this with my 318i changed both sides and all was well.

Possibly could be, but seems to be coming from the lower part of the suspension.

Anyone else had a similar problem??

I have a similar problem on my 318i, makes a metallic clunking sound when riding on uneven road surfaces...don't know if this is related in anyway to the above problem?
