As far as new bushings go, you can get an entire Energy Suspension bushing kit for the whole car on Ebay for something like $150 or so shipped.

Make that $120.
That doesn't look too bad. How is the ride with these? I'm not for a bumpy/stiff ride or anything and I'm wary of aftermarket companies that use scary words like polyurethane, impregnated, box, and graphite.

You won't need new bushings. Thats absolute rubbish.

Just grab a junk yard/parts car strut assembly and change it. Its much safer then the one on the car currently.

You'll need to un clip the brake line off the strut, undo the two bolts near your rusted portion (they go through the steering knuckle) then the four bolts ontop of the strut tower. Thats it.
I can't find any junkyard cars around here. But I'm looking into getting some HP's or AGX's so it's all good.
