Yeah im still on stock endlinks. I read mixed comments like how you should upgrade them if you get sways, and others say they arent necessary unless you track your car and stuff. They're pretty damn expensive haha. I haven't had any problems or noises coming from my stock ones, so i haven't bothered upgrading them yet. Though I really don't have that many miles on my car.....

Victor from my understanding, stiffer sway bars add more stress to the endlinks.

Aftermarket Sways = Stiffer = Stress on OEM Endlinks/non adjustable (which attach Sways to your car) = Possibly Snapping Endlinks

^and not being able to use Sway Bar's true potential for increased handling.


P.S. what a newb! i should put your question on my SIG victor! mhahahahaha j/k

Dude don't remind me. $225 total. I was in a hurry when i picked it up (went during my lunch time), it was dusty, but looked fine to me. Took it to R&J to get it installed, Jessie pointed out that they never colorsanded and buffed it out. So it looks like orange peel and there's some debris on it. I told them to install it anyway. So i called maaco the next day and told them about it, apparently that wasn't included in the agreement and that they only did that for you because they messed up on your colormatching, and that they'd do it for an extra $50. But its impossible for me to go there to have it done with my work schedule (their detailer leaves at 4).

So I'm just gonna take it back to R&J next week and have them do it, along with adjusting my sideskirts.
