Question for you all: how many of you have upgraded the rear sway bar on your Tib? Either the '03 Tib GT bar (which needs bending to fit mad.gif ) or an aftermarket bar?

Just did the 19.2mm Tib GT bar, and had a grand old time bending it to fit.

Why buy one that doesn't fit when you can get the eibach or the h&r, both for under 200...

And I reallllly don't get your poll / general question... lol?

Getting people thinking and throwing out what they have on their cars. That way somebody who hasn't done this yet can get info on the options out there and have a laugh at my little poll.

When I was researching rear bars, a lot of info on the bars available was scattered around. Collecting some of it in one place seems a worthwhile goal.

gotcha.

did you feel a big difference?

i think the eibach and h&r are 16mm, yours is quite a bit beefier.

sorry if this is a noob or obvious question, but aftermarket sway bars replace your oem ones right? or do they attach to them to make them stronger?

Im a lil confused by this poll. But i thought there was a 22mm bar on Import Shark for sale. I dont see why you would modify a 03 plus when you can buy a factory replacement?
