I replaced all of mine with OEM.

I wouldn't waste the extra money unless you really want to.

which bushings are you talking about?
if your talking about the lca's then replace them with aftermarket control arms it will be cheaper then getting oem bushings and replacing them since it will cost the same if not more.

Actually I think an OEM lca for 6th gen civics from parkway with discounts is under $50, dont quote me on this, but I think it is cheaper than the Omni's

rear set of polyurethane goes for like 45 bucks at JRP. they last longer and are better so even if its 10 bucks more or whatever, it's worth it.

not really, i know a guy who will do it for 20 bucks a side. so total spendings will be like what, 85 bucks? don't go half *** when repairing things. yeah it's cheap but it will come back and bite you in the ***, do it properly the first time.

well I think parkway sells the 6th gen LCA with new OEM bushings for less than $50 for members dont quote me though

For $85 your better off with the OMNI with new bushings in them. Less expensive and a bit lighter.
