Things happen when you order things unfortunately. Personally I've had great success with Sewell but regardless of whichever vendor I purchase from, I always send some sort of information that lists the make, year and model of the vehicle. On Sewell, I take the extra step to put in my VIN number so that it can be verified. Play it safe than sorry

Here's my final conclusion: awd 06-08's rear fsport sway bar is the same bar used on the 09's+(only the rear) 2is's but the only difference is the kits. 06-08's uses oem's brackets and bolts and 09's+ uses new brackets and bolts. And that's, that! "YUUUP!" lol
