Default 2003 Civic EX - Coupe

My husband bought me a 2003 Civic EX - Coupe 2 years ago and it was sitting in our garage since. It has now been on the road for the last 4 months. I have to change the control arms, and I am not sure what I need to buy so that I can take it to my mechanic. Can anyone help? Please! Control arms, bushings, etc....

Really won’t know until tear into it. Very common for front control arm bushing to go bad. Cheap fix but difficult to remove and need pressed in. Check ball joint while it’s apart
