Bushings are $5-15 each, getting them pressed in cost $100 at a local shop, new arms are $800 (m)
If the ball joints have no play, then there's no benefit to replacing them . . .
You can **** all your money away as much as you like.

What sort of symptoms did you have? I hear a lot of stuff about the front ends of these cars..Tie rods, ball joints and control arms. All very costly.

I just got new tie rods. I did my piggie install, and my bushings looked like they were putty...
melted and stretched. Squeaking noises, etc...
What are bad bushing symptoms?
