SWAY BARS.

I went with TRD, and I autocross. Immediate, undeniable, and amazing results. Easily the best suspension mod for our cars available.
I've driven a hotchkis-equpped front/rear sway combination, and it "felt" nearly identical. In my opinon, either will serve you very well, but do you want to spend the effort in installing the front sway as well?

The TRD is designed for use with the stock endlinks.
Endlinks, themselves, are funny things. I have had bad luck with aftermarket ones (all tend to bend... been through 3-4 sets with different install procedures)... but I've never had an issue with the stockies.
As far as I know, you're not likely to break the stock endlinks using the TRD bar or Progress bar. If you custom-make a literal solid hunk of carbon steel, then maybe.

I just installed the TRD sway yesterday and went out for a test drive afterwards. It feels pretty good, my friends who drove my car prior to the install also said they felt a difference and that the car feels more planted during a turn now. :D

If it's a daily driver... the TRD or Progress (or H&R for that matter) will be fine - as already mentioned. If you plan on pushing a little harder, maybe the Progress, since it comes with new end links.
If you are going to race at all and want some adjustability, the Hotchkis set is the only one with front and rear. Everything else is just rear - but as mentioned, perfectly fine for daily driving.
Even the Hotchkis set is overkill for some stuff...
