Default weird noise help plz

Hey guys i just reciently got my rear brakes changed and ever since then ive been hearing a knock/clunk noise from my rear wheels when i first reverse and press the breaks... it doesnt happen again till i go forward and then reverse again..
what could that noise be .. also i hear the same noise happening at the front when taking off..
what could they be ive already checkto see if my rear breaks are loose but there tight as hell and ive checked my caster rod in the front and there tight..

the rear sounds like the parking brake isnt set right( drums improperly adjusted or assembled will cause clunks) so the drums are probably hanging up, if disc all the way around check to make sure the pads are installed correctly some pads take shims between the pads and the pistons, if not there, the pads will move a little even if they appear to be tight,and finally is the dust shield bent if so this would make noise, some auto shops will do minor things so you come back later to get ripped off for minor problems.
if none of this helps take your car to a good dealership and have them inspect it.
hope this helps

It's a prelude. They're 4 wheel discs, unless its a 1st gen.

Check your suspension components for anything loose too.
