Default Why I'd try for the black powder coated h-sport sway bars, if available... (BWW)

The car is so freaking dirty that the fender looks dented! (Notice that the wheel has been cropped due to severe dirt embarrassment.)

Anyway, they're [the h-sport sway bars] really not too visible, and certainly not visible very often, but in the right light they kinda stick out. Funny that the topic came up today, as I'd never noticed them before (I usually park with the wheels straight ahead) and just casually saw this today:

Default Yeah, I have mixed feelings about 'em...don't really care I guess.

I always prefer stealth to flamboyance, but these aren't too out there so I guess they're kinda "cool". Seeing as how everyone else will apparently be getting them in black, I guess a few of us will be unique...

Default Ha ha, here's my install info:

- Drive to San Jose
- Wait in <a href="http://www.dynospotracing.com/">Dynospot Racing</a> guest area
- Drive home
- Enjoy for two months
- Drive back to San Jose
- Wait in Dynospot Racing guest area (set to firmer setting in rear)
- Drive home
- Enjoy even more

Really, the <a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/allroad/msgs/54436.phtml">install</a> "notch" is less than 1/4" of plastic ground down with a <a href="http://www.dremel.com/html/home_fr.html">dremel</a> tool...can't even tell what was done.

Default H-sport sway bars, what is the advantage of stock/sport?

Also, that's only front I assume or also rear?
