Clicking sound after front strut bar installed

I'm not really sure if it's from the strut bar but I just noticed a clicking sound when running the car AFTER I installed the aftermarket strut.

Were you driving or stationary? Running implies the car wasn't moving and I just want to clarify.

My bad. And yes, I meant driving.

Go back......... loosen, then re-torque all the nuts and bolts making sure the bar is seated against the strut towers, and on the boss in the middle. Otherwise it might be that the noise surfaced because of the increased rigidity of the aftermarket bar.
