ABS Clunk all day long?

I know about ABS clunk being normal and I have searched the threads for the problem I am having but have yet to find reason/solution to my problem. Almost every time (90%) I accelerate from a stopped positon, I get a clunk on the passenger side front. Not just when sitting overnight, etc. And yes it does occur at slower speed as I accelerate. No other problems are noticed except for noise. Has anyone else experienced this?

have the axles-cv joints and ball joints been inspected?
how are the brake pads and rotors?
the abs noise should only be the 2 self test at start up and as you first begin to move forward (based on my gen2)

Problem solved. I took the car to the dealer and it took them a long time (according to service manager) to find out the cause of the noise. It was a rusted bushing beneath the subframe on the right front of the car. They cleaned and lubed it and for now everything sounds fine. It was covered by warranty as well.
