Front and Rear Sway Bars
So I was looking online and noticed companies like Eibach and Comptech sell upgraded sway bars for our 03 TLs. If I am running stock springs and plan to get tokico blue shocks (my stock shocks are old, my car has 75k miles) I have just been noticing on sharp turns that the whole car kind of leans a little more than I would like it to. I don't want sport springs because the ride seems like it will be a little too stiff for my liking. Will an upgraded front and rear sway bar help with this leaning that my TL is doing? Do I need BOTH a front and a rear swaybar? And also what brand would you guys recommend?

You should get the Progress 24mm Rear Sway Bar, its the thickest out of all the aftermarket bars for our TLs. I have it and I felt a nice difference in tight turns upgraded from the stock 16mm Rear Sway Bar. Right now I just have the Progress Rear Sway, ive read somewhere that upgrading the front sway bar is not beneficial.

BTW, stock RSBs for 2nd Gen TL-P is 18mm, stock RSB for 2nd Gen TL-S is 19mm.

Regarding spings, everything I've read say's if you upgrade your shocks, upgrade your springs.
One of the members here recommended the Tanabe NF210 (is that the right number??) with the Tokiko Blues. They drop the car a moderate amount and the "NF" stands for "Normal Feel" - so they are not intended to be harsh.
I think it's TypeS_Sucka that has 'em (not exactly positive of his screen name spelling). He posted some pics for me when I had a similar question.
