really? I go over a noticeable bump merging on 417 from 408 and I feel like a stiffer sway bar would decrease the pull I get when going over the bump.

I think opboarding had something similar that he fixed, no??

My bump problem was from my rear caster being way off between the two sides of my car. Pointed it out to my alignment guy and he did his best to try to match them. It is pretty much gone now but I think I still feel it over certain big dips.

Shouldn't be hard if you have a jackstand. My shop did it for me since I had the brakes done. I used energy greasable bushings so that it's a little easier to grease them later on

gah....ive gotten crazy camber wear on my tires and had to get some new ones..i went and ordered some hankook ventus v12. i only got 20k on my dws and now i am really considering rear camber kit but looks like it will look really weird without the camber...(as odd as that sounds) anyone have pics of the rears with their camber dialed in

Once they make a "jdm style" grille for the 11+ I am going to do this! Looks like a fun project.
