I've got floflex and I can't complain, they improved handling a lot and are great value.

floflex here too, but to be honest having done both a poly bush swap and a straight replacement-wishbone (on a different car) with pre-fitted std bushes.  I'd do the later if I did it again....

You only ever need two tools in life. If it moves and it shouldn't use Duct Tape. If it does not move and it should, use WD40.
