It's not a massive clunk it's honestly very minor, but either way it's best to sort it now rather than ignoring it and having a real issue later.
Im a bit worried for you that it’s the subframe. As I’m sure you’ve heard, it’s only a matter of when, not if. I’m having mine done in a couple of weeks. Like you, I just purchased my E46... peace of mind investment.
