for starters, $80-$100 chin spoiler from suncoast... it wont look so naked.
Here's one with a STOCK bumper...

Is this an oem part? Anyone have a part number? How much for rear gt3 sway new? Confirming it bolts onto original drop links?

Hey Mark, it was good speaking with you on the phone. I'll keep my eyes out for any other front bar options out there but it seems that elusive "middle-ground" between the stock and GT3 bars is pretty sparse right now.

I appreciate your help with that. Of course I would want what doesn't exist! I might try that H&R and see if I can dial in the car with the rear

Question - what about a M030? I've heard that might be somewhat middle ground...

.5" bigger, about 10% stiffer. IMO, this would be a waste of money, as it is not adjustable. Unless you are sure you won't ever upgrade your suspension, I wouldn't spend $200 for a nonadjustable M030 sway bar. Part number: 99634370302 (not sure if this is your model, but should be around the same price, nonetheless).

You might be better off spending another $100 for the adjustable front bar.

Suspension upgrade would totally make the car handle and look so much better..

Will it be possible to remove understeer on a standard (ROW) suspension with a pair of GT3 sways?
