Looks good. No gross turquoise color either. Don't know what all of the brackets are exactly, but I guess we'll see when I put it on. One thing that's kinda stupid is that they talk about a tube of grease that's "included" in the instructions, yet I didn't receive anything like that. Oh well, I'll use my own synthetic grease.

Hey, you got two stickers too. Neat.

I'm sure you're going to give us a review and DIY.

You cannot see the front sway bar from outside the car. You can see the rears pretty well. Just a thought. You have to love the business world.

Actually, you can see it through the rims (that is if they're big enough). I have 17's, so you'll just be able to see the anti-roll bar. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

Yeah, I'm waiting until I get the rear one. Then I'll put both of them on. I don't want too much understeer (especially with this snow). I had to throttle steer like a **** in the snow yesterday and it was scary. I've rather have the whole car sliding sideways than just the front.

i just put my rear on and the rear end is so freaking stiff, i took a corner reallly hard and my back end didn't go anywhere. i need the front sway bar and i think i will be able to take corners like nobodies bussiness...

if a cop is chasing me, i would just make a right turn out of no where and loose him.

when i took off my stock rear sway bar, it was just a light dinky little piece of hanger wire. the 22mm one is solid and heavy... it took less that 45 minutes to get it changed, if you have a impact gun and/or a lift or a good jack...you just have to take off the rear rims, unbolt the stock sway bar(if you have one) and then install the tie bar then the sway bar. it doesn't hit my custom exhaust at all, its like 2 inches away, but im afraid it will hit if i lower my car.

hey grey, what are those 4 half rings for... it didn't say anywhere in the instructions that came with the package where to put them on...
