Bending the brackets a tad so they would clear your adjustment ***** would have been the proper way to do this mod.

Got bored today and decided to paint my 350EVO rear sway bar.

Sanded down with 220
2 coats of Bare Metal Primer
3 coats of Berry Red paint
Wet sanded with 600
1 more coat of Berry Red

It's drying right now then i'll wet sand with 2000 then 2-3 coats of clear and another wet sand and hand polish it.

Excessive for a sway bar that sits 2.5" off the ground and gets scraped up everywhere eh??

G35 sedan w/ too much money in mods
Looks good so far, who cares if it sees a little abuse. I'm glad that at least my front Hotchkis is covered by my undertray.
