Just installed sway bars today
If you havent done this yet, do it do it do it!!! its a tremendous difference, makes the car alot more fun to drive it nearly eliminates that slight body roll that you still have after youve installed lowering springs and sport shocks, gives me alot more confidence in corners and the abuility to quickly go around deads things, or beds lying on the highway.

I have done with Eibach. They costed me around USD750 including installation.
It is highly recommended. Will give you much more confidence in cornering.
BTW, I am in Taiwan. Parts are more expensive than in US.
