Get it on a lift and see if there is cracking on the rubber. For me, all four were cracked. I'm not sure the cost to pay someone else to do it. I bought the bushings for about 20 each and replaced them myself. I had carquest press them in for 20 dollars. But buying the entire control arm is relativeley cheap also. I think you can ge tall four for under 300 on rmeuropean.com. Just be sure to buy the OEM ones. I've heard of the aftermarket balljoints failing prematur.ely

Car looks good. I liked it with your first set of brabus reps though. Make sure you change your rear diff Fluid to go along with your services. I would also grease up the wheel bearings if they haven't been changed or serviced.
