stickers will be included with your orders, that way you can apply them as you wish. polished bars will come with gun metal decals, while black bars will likely come with white, however I don't anticipate many people will but stickers on the black bars.

Front and rear endlinks will be instock within a couple weeks. Fronts are being made right now and should be ready for shipping in 2 weeks. rears are touch and go as I'm waiting for the new bushings still, I have the new V2 endlinks instock, just no bushings for them.

Was this the issue that was causing the first generation to make noises?

OMG yes! and even though I changed mine to ES bushings, they still make noise and I am coming to the conclusion that it's because they are rusted to ****!

I just prepared my engine bay for the FSTB. I took both the plastic pieces off from the sides. Do these pieces fit back on with the FSTB? Just curious...I'll probably pitch them if not...

The endlinks rusted? Should I just use the OEM ones then? My swaybar is still sitting in my livingroom!

Ya, but then again, they've been through some nice suburbs of Chicago winters!

I suggest waiting for the new and improved SS version.

I think some minor trimming is required, but nothing huge.

Has anyone actually received the FSTB and installed it yet, or are they still in the processing period and will have massive time delays from when they are ordered?

Yes, after changing out the damaged bushings to ES, the noise went away for about a week. Then it came back. But after 8000 miles, the ES bushings held up and did not rip. So I don't know what else is causing the noise.

By the way, I painted the entire endlink with Rust-oluem to guard against rust. It seems to be working...probably just need to paint it every
year. I shoud've gone with stainless steal bolts and washers.

I have the demo on my car for a few months now, but my car was the test mule for it. The bar works great. I just got my new motor installed and they also swapped the front sway bar for the SE-R one. In tandem with front endlinks which I also have this is a beautiful upgrade.

Here is the latest update from Taz...as of last Monday (9/24).

they are on their way, should be here today. That said it will take a day or 2 to process and shipping, some MAY receive them by friday or monday, but expect towards the end of next week before it's on your door step.

You are asking for a daily update which is not needed!!!

read his last post...should be out for shipping any day... ITS COMING!!!!!!!

sit back...relax... it will be here soon... I know you are excited man... but come on... dont bash him or his company... this type of attitude will make people not want to help us with parts... we only have a few people out right now that help us... DONT RUIN IT FOR US!!!!
