I wasnt trying to flame the kid...and honestly whoever bought the car should be of no issue in this thread. I apologize for bringing that point up OP.
Ok do not buy any off brand ebay strut bars....they will be worse than the stock one you have on there. If you want a good front strut bar that is still on the cheaper side I would recommend the Corksport strut bar, I believe its like $90. Want one that is about the same quality but will not require relocating the CC, go with KMR(search on the forum), I believe it is $159, possibly $100 is you can get the used test piece if its still forsale if I remember correctly. GT Specs is nice, but hard to find.
For rear strut bars, Corksport would probably be your next bet for $90 as well. If you can find it, I believe the GT Spec is a little beefier than the corksport one, but hard to find.
As far as rear sway bars go unless your gonna be tracking your car or rallying the piss out of it it all comes down to how much you want to spend(I could be wrong on pricing):
Progress, 22mm, $170
Racing beat, *not sure of size*, can be found for cheap on here mainly due to the noise it produces.
AWR ,19mm, $145
AWR, 21.5mm,$222.50
If this is for a daily driver, I would probably go with the AWR 19mm because I would be saving money and from what I have heard is if you take corners hard with the 22mm Progress your likely to break the endlink tab. With the RacingBeat you get the associated clunking noise that plague a lot of people.
If you are really wanting to upgrade your handling, you should look into a good strut and lowering spring combination(Tokico blues and Eibach/Tien), or a good quality coilover setup if you want more adjustability(KSport or BC).
Hope this helps you out and if my input is wrong, someone please correct me.
