Give him $50 cash.

the stock ones will hold a 19mm bar. It is suggested with 20mm+ but you never know. Only a few people have broken them.

I'm running the stock brackets and bolts with the stock endlinks and RSX bushings. Seems fine so far. I might get some of Grey's cool endlinks eventualy just cause they are cool looking but I think the stock brackets are fine. They look the same as the RSX brackets on my friends car.

you replying to me? If so I'll talk to the RSX guy and see when he wants to get his new one. He lags about this kind of stuff sometimes so it might not be for a while.

Yes.
Stock end links work with Rsx sway bar.

RSX endlinks = Civic endlinks.

they are the same thing, if you are going with the 19mm RSX and RSX-S bar you will have no problems. If you are getting the RSX-R bar (22mm) then you should upgrade the endlinks.

I agree that this is a very worthwile upgrade. I just installed mine tonight....very easy. I picked it up through clubrsx.com (55 shipped) Since I had it off anyway I also added polyurethane bushings to replace the rubber ones.

it was raised cuz your car springs havn't settled after being decompressed when you lifted the car. once the springs settles, you be back to your no finger gap.
