Just had my H+R front sway installed-had to drill out the endlinks

The shop just drilled out the endlinks to the necessary 12 mm. Anyone know where I could get the correct sized endlinks? Or if I have to go to the dealer, what should I ask for? Side note, I would have attempted it myself but the shop already had the car and the front needed replaced, just had to let it be known.

On a separate note I'm getting eibach for the rear. Im wondering if having a smaller front and larger rear would help understeer? Should I have just gotten eibachs front and back (since their front is a little smaller than the H+R). Any thoughts appreciated.

From what I recall, the Eibach rear sway bar is the thickest of the brands. I would think that in your case this would help alleviate some understeer. When I had my C32 I went with the H&R rear sway bar only.

you purchase the wrong sway bar thats why you had to drill it.. h&R site has option for 12mm and 10mm holes for the front sway bar. your stock C32 endlink is 12mm and is the correct size. if you get the regular C320 Endlink they are 10mm but thinner in size.

If I bought the wrong one shouldn't have been too small? Somethings not right here.

the reason they drilled its because the holes on the sway bar were to small for the endlinks on your car right?

Yo mike, haven't heard from you in a while. How's the car coming? Did you get any of your parts yet? (sorry to hijack your thread)
