^^^^No, You don't need new bolts, unless the old ones are frozen. But you do need new bushings and brackets. Also, you may need new end links and end link bolts, again, if the old ones are frozen. Since it's an '07, the bolts may have frozen if you have driven in snowy conditions where salt has been used.

what'd you guys do with your stock sway bar[s]? keep them around or try to sell them? do people even want to buy the stock sways?

Mine are in my garage... don't expect I'd get much/anything for them... on the other hand, when I go to sell the car, I can swap em back on and I should be able to get something for the F-sport bars I remove.

(same answer for my stock exhaust and intake too)

anyone know the cheapest place to get the front Fsport sway for an AWD? I looked at trademotion and could not find it...sewell is not bad, but it is sooo much more than the rear for so much less benefit.


F-Sport Sway Bar (AWD)-Front Sway Bar only (AWD)

What do you guys think about the ISF sways instead of F-sport?

I was going to order the f-sport but my guy told me that the ISF sways are bettter so I got those instead.

Car handles so much better now.
