Nice! Hope you got it at a good price. KAI is a good company and they offer alot of stuff for the Hyundai community, but man oh man...they are crazy expensive! $80 for map light LEDs?

Wow that's an incredible piece of metal! Definitely update us on the ride quality difference!



As an added benefit, you can now go over speedbumps without a second thought!

I've been eyeing those for months. Let us know how it works. I'd add about anything to get rid of that rear end corner wag in bumps!

That's spiffy and all, but how exactly is this a sway bar and not an underbody brace?

I was thinking the same thing, Stocker. Unless that whole black member is mounted to the torsion bar instead of the chassis?
