fredis is an unknown quantity at this point
i read this thread and was like wtf?! it's [almost] impossible to snap a sway bar, then i looked at the pic, and it was your end link.


you must have some aggressive streets where you live to snap an endlink with an oem sway bar...

greys endlinks are nice, with upgraded sway bars, might not be worth getting if you are keeping the oem one...

Either you drove your car into your kitchen, or your garage has a vinyl/laminated floor. Which is it?

Not needed unless you get thicker bars.
