I say better safe than sorry. If you think you hit hard enough to do damage to the bars then at least have it looked at to make sure you won't run into any problems later on. If it's just the paint you're worried about then don't worry about it too much cause it's not that visible.

I'd patch it up, with some underbody spray, like a rubberized paint. It will keep them from rusting and giving you headaches later on. Check your alignment as well if you're talking about control arms.

They're all about the same, in my experience... auto parts store or a wal-mart should have it.
