So what does the rear look like...does it have the same extra length to drill a new hole? I just haven't crawled under to see.

Rear cant be done in a similar fashion. Not enough material on the bar to drill

I would read that part of C as allowing this mod. All you are doing is drilling a hole for mounting a bolt and using a secondary factory mounting location.

So how would the car handle with only the front sway bar modified? Would you then HAVE to change out the rear for a stiffer one?

It would be a good idea to get a rear bar as just changing or modifying the front will probably cause more under steer. For normal daily driving you would probably never really notice the under steer and only feel the better steering response.

No you don't have to change out the rear. It really comes down to how you want the car to handle. Typically when you add more spring rate (via sway bar in this case) to the front, and you keep all other factors the same, it will make the car want to push and understeer more. Stock I found my car to undeersteer more than I like. So in my case I would not just do this front swaybar mod, and is why I am also doing a rear BMS swaybar.

Picked up the endlinks from BMR and ready to drill, does anyone have a pic of the hole they drilled so I can get a visual of how far/what it is supposed to look like?

Thanks!

Defiantly doing this. I am a big fan of tight front end.

Is this going to hit any of the suspension parts after the car is lowered? While turning or suspension travel?
