E46 lower ARM OEM mistake

[madnet]

Dear all, I changed both my lower arm at MSpeed subang one year ago. The foreman there suggested Meyle brand for the arm. However, within a year the ball joints are wearing out. It should have lasted for at least 3 years or more... I should have just changed to lemforder... this was my expensive mistake.... Just changed to Lemforder last week and my ride is smooth again....my 2 cents..:stupid:
