well, you can start by doing some trouble shoot. i would get a can of spray lube and start spraying just a little bit of lube ONE AREA at a time then drive the car immediately to see if the noise goes away. if its still there, then spray another area of the suspension with a little lube then drive your car again until the noise is gone. The very last part that you sprayed and the noise went away should be your ticket. remember to spray a small area at a time and go out for a test drive to confirm.

my car did the same thing when i first went oem & eibachs, turns out to be the springs with oem shocks the springs somehow did not want to seat properly on the old 90K + oem shocks. got a set of 4 kyb's and the sound went away... my symptoms was VERY similar to yours early mornings especially cold days the car would creep and pop for a good 3-5 blocks then settle down after and never hear it again till the car sits overnight.

If you are still on the original struts, I would look closely in that direction. My front driver side strut was shot and was making squeaky crunchy sound. Also have your outer tie rod ends and balljoints checked, as others here have suggested. Your car looks good by the way.
