Aftermarket bushing for FD rear lower control arm?

So I have the full set,(at least what I think is the full set?) of the superpro bushings. It does not include the rear lower control arm inner bushing - any reason? it appears to be one of the largest on the car - are they saying the stock is far superior and felt they didn't need to offer one? I ask because I can't seem to find if they have one or not - if they do, I'm interested to order one.
I know there are one or two options out there to replace them - but not many.
Thoughts on that inner bushing?

The "damper bushing" is really a pillowball encased in a rubber bushing to allow movement of the arm on two axes due to trailing arm configuration. None of the kits I'm aware of offer a replacement for these, though I've seen one aftermarket replacement from Japan that basically replaced the rubber with solid aluminum.
