Did anyone put front or rear sway bar on their IS, yet? Or does anyone know of any good and decently priced sway bars for the IS?

AFAIK nobody is selling an aftermarket swaybar (front or rear) for the 2IS. Several folks are "working" on one, but have been for a loing time now.

Someone here said he bought the TRD rear sway for the GS350(?) since he was told it was a direct fit. This was a few months ago and no updates so I'm losing confidence that we'll ever see sway bars from the aftermarket.

The car's only been out for two years... It took the same amount of time for the 1IS to get popular with the aftermarket.

By now I'm all like.. whatever.. I'll believe it when I see it. Even if sway bars from the aftermarket came out now I'm going to wait a bit longer to see what Toyota has in store for us. The "F" parts are supposed to come out for our cars soon right? That could mean factory warrantied suspension parts for us.

Lexus would never warranty an IS-F part on an ISx50.

BTW I am the person that was extremely close to purchasing the TRD sway bars.

...until I found out the TRD ones are the same size as our stock ones.
