im leaning more towards the function7 ones because on omni's website it says that the "new style" ones arent even out yet for the 96-00 civics. it still says old style. i dunno though what do you think? plus, i want them a polished finish and in the details about the omni's it says "silver" but they dont really look silver. who actually knows what they look like? and help me because id really rather get the omni ones...cheaper.

 

you can get those omnipower lca's from omnipower for cheaper, well the older style ones atleast are only $129

 

I think that OEM has better quality bushings than pretty much anything else other than function 7's...so go with them since want polished look.

 

so the omni's arent a polished look?

 

I'd find out which ones came with the better bushings

 

on the function7 ones it says that: Optional length-adjustable ball-joint endlinks are available to attachmost Honda/Acurasway bars,however,they may not be required in some cases. The complete sway-bar linkage kit isand additional $38.00 with the purchase of this item. do i need to order this or what?
i was also thinking about going ahead and getting a rear sway bar too. nothing too expensive though.

 

No I'm not saying the omni's aren't polished, it's just that OEM has better bushings than omni's...so if you wanted something polished, that also had a good bushing, the function 7's are the way to go.

 

IDK the bushings in my omni's were better than what I pulled out of the car

 

buying the function7's right now. what about that sway bar linkage thing? im just going to use my oem one. i think im going to paint it too.

 

When I was going to buy some new lca's, all the research I did told me that other than pretty much only function 7's, most of the bushings were not as high quality as OEM. The reason yours might have been better might have been that you were comparing the 5-10 year old oem ones to brand new omni ones.
