it's a lower control arm.
there's not really a good or bad here
they are only for looks, so if you like they way they look their good.

I have a set on my sedan, and my buddy has them on his hatch. Have held up fine. Just like instrument said, they are mainly for looks. Weaskauce has them at a good price.

make sure you clock/preload the bushings when you install, or your bushings will last a month.

You guys are all wrong..lower control arms are needed if you want to run an aftermarket sway bar/ subframe brace combo...yes the blox lower control arms are fine but you don't really need them unless your running some kind of set up like i mentioned

The only exception to that would be if you have stock LCAs with a pre-drilled hole for you to mount a stock type endlink into like the 96-00 civics. 92-95 civics have two different LCAs listed in the parts manual, one with a provision for a rear sway, the other, without...

For example, if you have a 96-00 civic and would like the try out the ITR rear sway ASR subframe brace combo, rear LCA's are not entirely necessary...
