Not happy with Koni/GC! Switch to what now?

Hello,
3 Days ago i got new suspension setup and got installed Koni/GC/SPC front and rear.
There is a constant squeaking noise,(yeah i know i can get rid of it using grease), but there is also the clunking noise when going over bumps.
It is very annoying and i am thinking of ditching this set up and going for something better.
My budget is $2k and im willing to take any advices, or recommendations that you experts have.
Thank you

I think you should return it to the shop and have it redone...

Well for sure returning it to shop is the very first option to that.
