Recomendations for suspension
As you can see my new tires and black CLS wheels look lost inside the wheel wells. Don't want to go too radical, I used Eibach springs on my 2003 C230K and it is near perfect for what I need.
Looks like Tire Rack has the 4 Eibach springs for $266 (Eibach wants $368) or the H&R set for $244.
Want to go with a new front sway bar, the H&R is 26 mm and costs $294
Anyone know if the CLK55 springs and sway bar will work as good as the H&R? Price of the CLK55 sway bar or the CLK63 sway bar?

Getting a H&R set from a MBWORLD member, he bought for 2003 C class, same part number for the 2006 CLK350
Seems the CLK55 sway bar is made by Eibach, so a used CLK55 sway bar will be in my future.
I have the C32 rotors and pads, waiting on calipers to come.

I was shopping for the bs sways, I think the best price I found was ECS tuning.they are a vendor here so you can send them a PM for a hopefully better price

Got my C32 / CLK55 brake calipers coming.
But I found a CLK 63 front sway bar new from a MB dealer for only $123.40
Part # 209-320-04-10
I am worried I will need so many other parts just to put it on, can anyone tell me what I need?

Thank you all the people who offered me their CLK55 used sway bars.
I ended up ordering the Black Series front sway bar and end links from ECS Tuning, the free shipping was the big factor in going with them. They took another $10 off the BS sway bar ($147.65) and two end links for $33.17 each.
I probably need some bushings and mounts, not sure until I see what I have coming.
Now I need a tuning/ speed shop here in Lost Wages to install this stuff.

I have my H&R springs, Brembo calipers and rotors, and Eibach C63 Black sway bar almost ready to install.
Just wondering what else I need to install the sway bars? The bar came with rubber bushings and I have the two end links. What else is needed?
