If you want to go really fat. Get four standard lower control arms (2 for each side) cut them 12.5mm off centre (2 each way from centre) and then weld the longer sections together. Instant 25mm longer control arms. Extra 50mm of track plus extra camber, really helps that initial turn in.
If they are cleaned up and painted, you would never pick them as modified. CAUTION: Make sure they are done professionally. I would suggest getting an engineering shop to do them - you don't one to break through bad workmanship. Do this at your own risk.
