Default Sqeaking Noises

My wife's GS is making sqeaking sounds and I wanted opinions of what it might be. The noises occur during turns and over dips and bumps. Sometimes there is a clicking sound too. Seems to be coming from the suspension.
Weren't the Tanabe NF210's sorta new in 06, anyone have any problems with them?
I'm also thinking it could be bushings....my old SC made squeaks and that's what it was....but that was a 10 year old car so I'm reluctant to think that's it. What else in the suspension could be doing this?

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

So the car is lowered on NF210's? If so, how many miles?

The car has around 33K miles. That's a lot for a 2 year old car but doesn't seem a lot to be hearing squeaks. I have noticed the NF's on my wife's car are a different color than on mine. I just wanna know if it's the springs or something else on the car that's squeaking.
