If both fig8s and lower arms have been done at the same time, I'd suspect the ball joints or top mounts next.

Ball joints are an utter bastard. So much so that I just replaced the front shocks instead. And the top mounts. It was the only way to be sure.

Blitz Spec NUR Exhaust, somewhere over $1000
Needing another one 18000 miles later, bloody annoying.
