ANTI-ROLL BARS are all much the same, being just steel rods bent to a shape, with forged or rolled ends.
The Whiteline one is as good in that it does the same job, but the paint flakes off very quickly.

Think about solid drop links if you don't have them already, and keep the rear arb the same as it was.

If you REALLY want a "sway bar", I'm afraid a move to the USA might be necessary, LOL

Whiteline paint finish is far better these days than it was in the distant past and in general they offer a better range and more cost effective than other options IMO

carry various options & types on the shelf 0191-4103770

cheers mate already got the white line arb but as you said the paint comes off and it's now going rust only thing that's letting the car down underneath

What about taking it off & getting it cleaned & painted/anodised properly.
Also you could have any colour you like.Would that be cheaper?

You'd think so. Or even Hammeriting in situ?

I replaced the worn bushes front and back .. and kept the standard bars.. far cheaper and gave me an idea if i want ed to take it further.. The ride felt far better along with control..
