How old is the car? Is it a suspension clunk, or a clunk when going into gear, or accel/decel, clunk when cornering, starting the engine? It def could be bushings, but one thing heavily overlooked by my friends with their cold clunk was cv joints or wheel bearings (Chrysler/Dodge…… so grain of salt). Also might want to look at steering bushings and linkages.

Clunk at the rear left, started after hitting a bump too fast last year when it was freezing cold. I think I have cracked a control arm bushing, as when it's warm, the noise goes away.
I have had top mounts, shocks, end links AND sway bar bushes done.
It makes the noise only over speed bumps and dips in the road, it sounds like this but slightly more high pitched... 2017 Mazda 3 sedan suspension clunk
Here is the exact noise in my car I recorded earlier.
