HM Motorsports has never seen a "bent" rear trailing arm on any car. My mechanic suggested spending the $ on more vital components. He just replaced all of my front and rear, Upper and Lower control arms with the M variety, and upgraded my Sub-frame bushings too. The final piece of the puzzle were Megan rear Toe-control arms. This helped to set the correct camber and toe because the M parts are wider and longer. Needed another Alignment of course.
The car now handles better than ever!
