reallly annoying noise won't go away...
ok guys, so i installed my eibach sways about 2 weeks ago. Did everything correctly, even got some teflon tape which eibach didnt provide and wrapped the bars where the bushings go. Not long after, I heard this very slight rattle coming from the front passenger side, so i check to make sure everything is tightened down. Noise goes away for a day, comes back. Repeat this cycle about 3 times. I just can't figure it out and the rattling is starting to get worse. Do you guys think its a broken endlink? It looks fine to me so what else could it be? I really doubt its the bushings because its not making a squeaking noise....but a rattling noise. Theres no way to install the front sway bar upside down/backwards/ is there? OMG THIS IS DRIVING ME INSANE

I have comptechs and no squeek, just gotta watch out for loosening. Try puttin the grease like killer said and if that doesn't work, than maybe the sway isn't the culprit.

Go to an Acura dealer to get it fixed
Drop Zone did not transfer the rubber isolators to the front springs, there was no bumpstops on the front shocks, and my swaybars: they install the rear upside down and the front was not torque enough. To many problems and noise up front so took the car to acura paid $150 more to get bumpstops and the factory swaybar installed with poly bushings. No noise since.
Also comtech sends retaining clips with their front swaybar, they keep the swaybar from moving left and right in the bushing when steering. I'll be getting some of those to reinstall my eibach front swaybar again. I'm going to install it myself to make sure its done right. Will not pay Acura again and fuck Drop Zone!!!
