If that down south place has them in stock. I think I'll spring for the strut bar and sway bars. Nice prices.

None really other than the look. A chunk of steel welded in there will have the same affect.

the strut bar in the engine bay won't have much noticeable difference. Just get a rear sway bar. I'm going off memory, but i think the comptech rear bar is 22mm, eibach is 23mm and progress is 24mm. You'll want new oem or moog endlinks with it.

This is true. The strut tower brace is pretty much for looks with a very small effect on handling. If you want the best bang for your buck, rear swaybar is going to be the way to go.

The Progress bar that is designed for our cars is 22mm. To get the 24mm bar you have to select the Progress 3G TL rear sway bar. Fits perfectly, and it's the one anyone with a 2G CL/TL has if they have a 24mm bar.

If you want handling, you want BOTH sways. Replacing the front will do far more for handling than just the rear alone. Having a quality upgraded pair will help drastically. I can dial in or out oversteer or understeer simply by adjusting air pressure now.

Good to hear. Just remember, KEEP your factory one on with it. The OEM bar is a multi point (meaning it attaches near the firewall as well as the strut towers and offers more strength than just going across the towers
