For those having problem installing the lower rear bar, I found this pic of a successful install. It seems that the sway bar links are much more tucked.

Mine won't fit because I have active suspension, not worth shipping it back to malaysia to get a refund so I'll probably put it up for sale sometime soon. Wish I could have installed it though, loving my 3 other bars, damn active suspension! lol

so in overall, the Ultra Racing bars are worth the purchase as a set? (1 tower, and 2 lowers)
Considering the total price of the three bars are around the same as getting a set of the RD sport sways, which path offers more handling improvement?

yes it is better to have all 3 than just 1.
I have all 6 bars and will be install the back upper 1 later.
