Worn front control arm bushings

Hello
My 2006 civic sedan (~120,000km) failed a warrent of fitness because apperently the front control arm bushings are worn. They didn't specify a side or whether it was the foreward or rearward bushing. Is it just the larger foreward bushings on the front lower control arm that usually need to be replaced or both the foreward and rearward bushings on either FLCA?
Thanks

Pull a wheel off and take a look.

Probably the compliance bushing (forward), but none of us can see what you're dealing with.

If it's not obvious to you., ask whomever inspected the car to show you exactly what the issue is
