it's not goint to be notice if your suspension are not beef or build up.
save up for a pair of sway bar and you'll be happy.
the best investment, performance is my anti-sway bar..
ask people around..most of the onwer with upgraded sway bar cant say enough good stuff about it.

yes, go with a rear anti-sway bar, much more performance is to be had from those than upper front bars

THe upper front bar on an OLDER car will make a HUGE difference in chassis flex, but a new car like that your not going to notice much of anything. My 93 when I put the front bar on a few squeaks actually went away becuase of the bar limiting body flex, plus I'm sure the 03's are a lot more ridgid to begin with.
