RSX rear sway bar installed!!!!

I did it today. Well, I went to a place to get it installed but its on!!!

Huge difference front the old stock sway bar to the RSX sway bar. The car totally feels like its planted in the rear. No push or very little push in turns. Its a bit scary at first but I really really like it.
My suspension set-up is stock except for the Neuspeed front strut bar. Other than that its stock suspension for those who would like to know. Im gonna get the rear strut bar today front pacific mall today if I have time. Im very happy with this, recommend it to anyone
Later

yah, I really like suspension mods. The only cheap suspension mods are the sway bars and strut bars. Koni's are $1000 and springs are $300.
Wish there was cheaper suspension mods

I called Acura about the sway bar, it's $100 for the bar and $40 for the bushings and end links.

I've seen his trunk bar, it's red and it's installed.

Question for all those with the trunk bar, does you bar lie parallel or perpendicular to the trunk?

i heard if u lay it up parallel it will bend..
well all bars bend since all the pressure is forced tru there!!
so a little flexing on the trunk bar is common
but i think everyone is putting their trunk bars perpendicular!
