Comptech Sway Bars
Hey, I just recieved Comptech sway bars today, silver I bought used. Question I have is are they supposed to say comptech anywhere on them? I was expecting to see it in big in the middle, but I dont see it, just wanted to make sure its legit.

What gives
Yes I saw the $90 on there website also.
I called several acura dealers today
Vally Stream Ac - does not deal w/ aftermarket
HIlliside Ac in baysore - does not deal w/ aftermarket
Curry Acura in Scarsdale said 1.5hrs/per side, for total of 3hours, cost is $297!
So decided to try N.J. and called Park Ave Acura service said they are not dealing w/ comptech anymore?!?
Where the hell do I get these installed for a good price, its only a couple of bolts.

Any Ideas?
I am going to try calling around some more come Monday. Anyone know any good dealers to install these around L.I. I was always under the impression if I wanted to go NJ, park ave was the best, I wonder if service ppl ware just brushing me off b/c they are not going to make any $ on the purchase since I have them and all I need is labor for the install.

Why not install them yourself? If you have basic tools, then you can do it. Read up on the DIY instructions. It's very straightforward and can be fun. I had a ton of fun installing mine. I couldn't imagine PAYING somebody else for the fun and misery I could have.
Just an idea. ![Smile](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
Or you could find a member in your area who has done it before. I installed Darrin's sway bars with a friend at no charge.

anyone
Ya, I originally thought about doing that, but I dont have much tools, am a college student home at parents house for winter break. And i've done some electrical work on the car, but alittle nervous to mess around w/ the suspension by myself since not done any of that before. If anyone has a jack and tools on long island and familar with the install and wants to be a pal, that would be great, or a dealer willing to install at a good price.

Private Message Titand19 (Andy) he's here on the island and should be able to help you out if he's not too busy. Also mclarenf3387 in NJ has helped members in the past with after-market installs.
Even though they still have that price list on their web site, PAA has recently moved away from doing after-market installs since their head tech left.
On the island, Rallye Acura will install after-market parts. Give em a call. (516) 625-7777
Ant7701 (Anthony) is a tech over there can he can probably answer some of your questions as well.
Hope that helps.

Thank you
Thanks for the reply, I sent PM's to those guys, I also have an apt to get my car inspected at our local gas station, they said they would install them for 1hr, @ $75. I think thats pretty fair, and it does not seem any sort of complicated install that any good local shop could not handle, might just go that route.
