Got me thinking why the Hellwig is so much more than the CPP bar. As far as pricing goes you can buy the Hellwigs for 375.00 at SummittRacing and other vendors as well but that is still a substantial difference in price. When you mentioned the part #'s were the same I thought maybe CPP was buying the Hellwig rejects and reselling them. Then I looked at the pictures on each vendors website and noticed lots of difference in configuration of the rear sway bars. There are more pieces with the Hellwig and looking at the different shapes and hardware I'm sure the bars mount in different places.. The CPP bar is the one pointing more outward.
