Suspension, Steering and Brakes.
You should never cheap out on these, because they're the items that keep your car under control.
Police are extremely tight on aftermarket mods in these categorys because they actually can make your car dangerous.
If you can't live with OEM, atleast buy a reputable brand ($$$).. Cheap mods are what ruin the car scene.
Also, anything anodized purple has to be a load of 'JDM' garbage.

what about skunk2 lca?
Wouldn't recommend that brand to anyone.
What are you hoping to achieve by installing new LCA's on your car though?

Jokes aside either buy a quality reputable brand or for the time being you could strip and polish the factory ones and add new bushes
they can be highly polished and look decent

Well theyre pressed in and its metal on metal
having foreign material on the surface might cause it to slip
ok ill avoid if i do paint , might just polish em instead . thanks for the help :)

highly doubt you gonna polish it lmzo
you probably cbf halfway
sand blast and chrome dip maybe

tbh LCA's are pure wank factor, if you don't want your bushings to be worn out again like that, you can try spherical bearings, but that's exxy. Hyperflex energy bushings a good choice good work.

Not to mention OEM aye
