Thumbs up COBB sway bar set finally arrived after 3.5 months...so happy!

This is how it should have come equipped from the factory!!! It felt so sloppy before. Now it is nice and solid feeling through the turns. Lots more control through the corners. Well worth the months of waiting. I could've had Hotchkis much earlier I supposed, but the red powder coat clashes with my blue GT-Spec strut braces. I'm a graphic designer and artist. Things must match in addition to function.

I think it was about $360 shipped for both front and rear bars.

Could've just bought some Cuscos or Whitelines if you like blue so much ...

I think they're all the same performance wise anyway.

Ha!

I was looking for the fattest bars I could get (coming from VWs and a 28mm/25mm hollow setup before) and COBB and Hotchkis were the only ones to offer in that size (for street use). Plus I wanted the hollows for weight savings. Before I found COBB, I was ready to spring for the Cuscos. Seems like they had the best rep quality wise and I really like their styling. Whiteline's 24mm solid F/R kit looked promising and they have some good looking stuff, though I'm not a fan of the yellow and gold scheme. Doesn't agree with my color palette.
