Lower Control Arms

Hi,
I went to get an alignment done on my 06 R53 today, and the shop told me that I need to replace both rear lower control arms (bent), and the lower right hand control arm pivot. I want to get something better that the stock arms, and I see on Ebay a pair of Mevotech MV100003 Aluminum adjustable lower control arms listed for about $200.00. Has anyone had any experience with these and could comment on quality and fitment issues with them. I also need some recommendations on the front lower control arm pivot bushing. Is it better to replace the bushing or just replace the whole control arm assembly.
Thanks,
Dave
