I've replaced my CV axles before after breaking mine at the drag strip with aftermarket parts and haven't had any issues. I wouldn't suggest going super cheap, but if you can find a mid level one it should be fine.

Don't know too much about the CV axle, but one thing for sure, get a whole control arm. It'll have new ball joints and bushings. I went with Moog on my wifes wagon. Whole arm actually ended up being cheaper than just a ball joint.
