Default Progress Rear Sway Bar (Anyone use this site?)

I am looking to get the progress rear sway bar, I have searched on here multiple times and I see that everyones sway looks the same, but I stumbled apon this today (website listed at bottom)

Is this the same bar? I really like the apperance of this bar and I think that you will be able to see the progress wording across the back, which I think would look good. Any one have this particular bar? Any help would be great.

I emailed showstoppersusa.com so I will await the response. It seems as if you do get both bars, as it says in the description of the item that it is a sway and tie bar combo. I think this setup would not only perfrom great but look great too. Hopefully they are both included with the progress lettering. Ill keep you posted.

Progress only makes a rear sway bar for the tC, the lower tie bar is not included.

Yup. But you can get it cheaper from here with the included Scionlife discount code (or evne without it):

http://www.ptuning.com/html/Item-Des...l&ModelDesc=tC

$173.95 with free shipping

I believe there is a 5% discount code somewhere around here. Just search for it on Google.

That is where I bought my bar from and they are great!! Fast order processing time and they got my bar shipped very quickly. Very happy with ptuning!

I dont understand why they would blatantly write in the description of the product that it is a tie bar combo if it isnt. That just doesnt make sense to me. I guess I will just go to ptuning....Anyone know the discount code?

That sucks, IMO they should keep there websites up to date as frequently as possible. While were on the topic, how do you guys like your progress rear sway...worth the money? I have heard many good things about rear sway bars and the improvements they make on our cars. I really would like to upgrade the poor handling of the tc. Ease of install as well?
