Default How stock is my EP3's suspension?

I have a 25ish mm (didn't exactly have a 25mm open end wrench) front sway bar, with extended ends that have moog printed on the zerk fitting boots.
I have a rear sway bar that pegs in at a ridiculously small 15mm. Both sway bars are a simple black color.

Are these stock on the 2003 Civic Si? (obviously the moog ends aren't.)

Moog is just a chassis parts company. Someone just replaced the stock endlinks most likely cause they went bad. Sounds stock. Buy a Progess sway bar combo and your life will be complete. Totally different car.

These have serviceable zerc's (sp) now. And I have a grease gun at work, so I don't think I'll have a problem with these going out.
