Since mine is what, 25.4mm? I think aftermarket is only 1.6mm difference right? Meh, bad part is that I would have to spend about $280 for adapter kit and sway bar for rear

I have Progress front sways on sale. They are 27mm and make a HUGE difference in the handling. You'd be suprised how much that 1.6mm difference makes.

These are in stock and ready to ship:

Depends on what you are going for.... me, I droped my 25.4mm front bar down to the 03+ 15.9mm bar, and upgraded the stock 13mm rear bar to a 2 point adjustible 25.4mm bar. :P However, on an other wise stock suspsnion upsizing the front bar may be a good idea... But, if you intend to add a rear bar, Personally I think you'd be better off Keeping the OEM 25.4 mm front bar.

Thanks Dezod, but I'll buy the adapter kit and rear sway bar from you when I get some $$$. I just want to do some drifting and 360s in the school parking lot
