I'm at a crossroads and looking for opinions.
I've got 2 sets of lower a-arms for my project. The first is the set originally on the car. They will require full strip down and cleanup, after which I'd epoxy then top coat with 2K.
The second is a set that I picked up in a box of spares. They appear to be the same visually, albeit they appear to have been slightly tweeked where one of the bushes goes. The tweek isn't going to affect geometry, but may affect the fitting of the new bush, so I will have to tweek it straight. These arms have already been cleaned up and have been powder coated. There are already a few small scratches that have broken the surface. These will be a lot less work overall.
Which would you use and why?
