You can't get the suspension arms new any more, thought you can pay 
through the nose and get stainless ones. We have recently had a set of 
arms nylon plastic-coated which results in a really beautiful and 
extremely durable shiny black finish. It also has the side-effect of 
dirt not sticking to it! All ball joints and bushes must be removed to 
have this done though, and the upper arm bushes have to be destroyed to 
get them out. The lower ball joint and lower bush must be pressed out 
and the fastners on the upper ball joint has to be cut off and replaced 
with bolts afterwards. BTW the lower arm has only one bush, but it's 
quite long.
