My front left lower control arm is damaged and i need to replace it. What i need to know is if it is better to replace it with adjustable arms or should i get new stock ones and if i get adjustable will it fit directly on with everything else stock. Please any help will be appreciated.

I prefer the adjustables. Probably cheaper as a set over OE parts as well. Not sure though.
Make sure you buy GOOD QUALITY arms if you do go this route,
rezlo posted good info on his site regarding the pitfalls of these.
Check it out.
and yes, straight fit.

Here you go... http://shop.rezlo.com/forums/ , join and hold on for the butt kissing of your life !
Check out his thread on the quality of the imported suspension stuff, very informative.
I would normally order from him as the quality is very good, but hell, he is expensive !
I think the lowers were R5400.00 odd last time I checked .

I would bring them in from Enjuku, Driftworx-the U.K. based one, not the Cape one..
Alternatively, chat to BG, or some of the local drifting okes about them..

If you`re handy and have an engineering facility available, I would go as far as to make my own.
All the "rose" or " heim" joints are locally available..BEWARE cheap chinky shit as they are flooding the market as well..
