Its pointless to get just the rear 
. Get a set like the Eibach.

it made a big difference, keeps the car flatter in the turns. If you buy it in a package the front is not that much more

The Eibach sway bar kit is pretty reasonably priced. If you need a set we have them in stock.

Huh? If you meant what do these add over the oems, It will make the car turn much flatter, more response to steering and better handling. (the eibach Kit took a little over 2 seconds a lap off my lap time at a track i frequent, just the rear showed no gain, but made the rear step out much more. With the kit the car is much more neutral with slight oversteer.

I'd say that the Eibach sway bars were probably the best upgrade I've done--I feel the impact every day: better steering response, bettering cornering and even lane changes. I feel more in control of the car and less like I'm driving a boat. For what it's worth I don't race or track--it's my daily driver.

The ultimate goal to achieve is a Balanced setup.
FWD cars are naturally set up to understeer from the factory.
When adding a larger diameter REAR SWAY BAR, you'll naturally make the car a little more tail happy. you can initiate a tail spin by what is called "Lift off oversteer". this is where you're about to hit a corner and you flick the steering wheel while lifting off the gas. the back end will rotate. This is fun!
But remember, the ultimate goal is to make the car balanced or have neutral handling. This is where a beefier FRONT SWAY BAR will come into play! to balance out the rear and make the car handle neutrally.
a neutral handling car will be safer to drive at the cornering limit, because the tire traction will be more predictable when it loses grip.
whereas when understeering, the front tires break traction first and the car doesnt carry into a turn and goes straight into a wall.
in an oversteer, the rear tires break traction first and can cause the car to fishtail.
