Swaybar !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! .

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

The guy is parting out a 2010 GTI with under 50k miles on it. I asked about the sway bar and he said he would do $55 shipped! So, is this a good price for something like this? I'm not about to shell out $200 for an aftermarket so I figured this would be the way to go...

Seems like a good price to me.

Yep! I want it soooooo much now! But what about lowering springs.....?

My car looks so goofy with an inch of wheel gap! *shudders*

But I'm still ordering it ;)

Can you get the front too? 22mm rear will be a nice upgrade, but I'd worry a bit about putting such a large rear bar with the stock front (iirc that's also a 22mm, with the stock rear @ 18mm).

The front should be fine for now (there are people who put 27mm rears on with their stock 21.7 fronts! That is insane)

Later on I might upgrade (although the GTI front is 24mm...) either that or I'm getting lowering springs (I'm too poor for coilovers lol)

Save for better lowering springs!!! That means there's probably going to be a premium.

Do you have a job right now? I doesn't remember.

No, no job... all my money is from selling computer parts that got replaced

Thanks Craigslist!

Just because people do it, doesn't name it smart, lol. It's not like stance handles well.

Seriously though, picking up the fill suspension or front and rear seats would be a nice pick up. Shit, I'll pick it up if you won't... lol. I was just looking at the full set on ecs, 27 front, 23 rear.

lolwut

I might get a bigger front swaybar eventually... but for now I'm planning on getting this and some lowering springs.

Also, front and rear seats?

Autocorrect-ed. Change name to make. Then change fill to full. Then change seats to sways. Trying to oppo on my phone during an OSHA PowerPoint... :(

I really should proofread my texts/posts better.
