I need your opinions on my recent suspension work

I had the following done to my 02 civic lx coupe:

H&R Sport springs
Koni yellows

I did the camber kit front and rear, full alignment, even replaced my worn upper strut mount bearings. I've got 16s and that's pretty much it... but...

I have this friggin CREAKING noise coming from the rear suspension. It's not a squeak and it doesn't do it unless the car is flexing like going on uneven roads, dips, backing in/out of driveways. Is this a bushings problem? trailing arm?

the aftermarket shop i used said that it may have something to do with the koni replacement strut perch and how it doesn't fit with the factory honda setup or some shiyat.

any ideas? it USED to squeak constantly while moving at any speed.. but the dude did something er other to reinforce the thin *** honda stock bushing... so now it does the creak. I'm so aggravated!

wait, my rear suspension started to squeak like 2 hrs after i installed fipk II, only other things i got is neuspeed front upper strut bar and x brace, i dont know what it is, could be the same problem. i can hear it while backing out of drive ways, releasing the clutch or if i make the car jerk in first gear, oh yeah, when i start my car too, i wish it will go away
