Default OBX rear sway bar? Anybody use this?

Any of yall ever try this rear swaybar? And if so, how was the fit (most important) and finish?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...ksid=p3907.m29

I know, I know the colors suck (I will paint it flat black, that blue is ridiculous) but for the price its not bad. Keep in mind, I'm not interested in dropping $380 bucks on an ASR kit for my 12 year old, 258,000 mile HX. I've slowly modded this car and kept it a clean, cheap but fun commuter and thats why I'm going this route. I mean, its gotta be better than NO rear swaybar, right?

I'm also/instead looking for a 99-00 SI rear swaybar with links and d-brackets, but don't know if I'll find one...plus, thats only a 13mm (I think) so if I can get this one new for a little more that'd be ok...

thanks

Thanks...turns out it might be a fake. Went to OBX website, they dont make this. Then found this online:

Go figure, just like my $40 set of tie bars were megan racing...riiiiigghtt. Oh well, probably just wait for a SI set-up anyway, probably better balanced for what I'm running and cheaper hopefully than the funky-colored knock-off.
