alternate route to inversed tie rods on extreme drop to fix steering rack angle??

Is there any way to fix the angle our steering arms sit after lowering say 2 1/2 - 3 inches? I noticed the rsx have inversed tie rods they use and reviews are great of receiving less sloppy steering and bumpsteer. I love the way my car looks lowered but sacraficing my smooth steering and ride almost doesnt seem worth it anymore. I could handle the rougher ride if I could just get my steering smooth and effortless again, anyone found any products that help level the steering arms I'm out of ideas maybe adding more neg. camber to the front wheels, I have pillowballs so this is possible let me know guys really appreciate it!

There are a few routes
1) inverse tie rod ends
2) get coils with the straight steering arm
3) Cut and weld a straight steering arm (probably not the safest idea)

I'm not really sure what you are asking.

well in that case my question is does anyone make inversed tie rods for our model civics. I have an 04 civic ex coupe, the only one's I've seen are for the rsx.

They make them for the EP3, which fit. PM JamesL or HondaKorn. They swapped inverted tie rod ends because they each bought the wrong size.
