Eibach front sway bar can be purchased through European vendors. You may have to pay a little more for it since its coming from so far and rear in the US.

I made that point clear in the 9th post of this thread..."I have rear air on a sport pkg '03, at first sign of airride failure the KW Var 3s will be installed, will re-code to remove airride function."

The rear air has yet to fail (over 200k miles).

Don't understand the "Quiet" comment, having researched/installed/set-up/corner balanced/tracked/street driven (over 150k miles) several coilover vehicles personally (sig pic show two of them, ZR-1 & Hennessy Viper, at Sebring track day).

Yes the rear air X5's can last quite some time. I have see 3 examples so far in excess of 220,000 miles on original rear air system.
