I sometimes get confused with these type of threads, but why exactly are you changing the front lower arms?
Did you pop over to your mechanic to have the alignment done and was then advised that one or more of the bolts was damaged?
Did you have an off?
When one of my compliance bolts was seized I swapped a Mugen one in there for about £50
£633 seems a lot of expense to replace a seized bolt. You'll also have to get the car aligned after - another £100 or so.
Hope it all works out

So I just thought I'd better just get them both changed the reason I started the thread was to find out if you needed to replace the whole arm if the buhes are one as they are a one piece from Honda.

I agree that it will almost definitely be the collar that needs replacing and the bolt of course, if he has cut it.
On those compliance bushes the only thing for the bolt/bush to seize to is the collar.
