Im looking at purchasing sway bars for my 2019 honda civic hatchback (EX). I see 2 brands that are both priced about the same: Eibach and Megan Racing. I want your guy's opinions on which of the 2 i should get.

Go with Eibach or Sirimoto. Megan’s stuff is value oriented, so typically not the best quality.
I have the Eibach prokit barely an inch lower but the handling is significantly better almost same stock while curves and cornering(canyon runs) much better. Just my 2cents.

Jk. Eibach is a valid choice too, but my choice was Whiteline.
What's the noticeable difference with whiteline? (I was looking into these as well)

I have the whiteline rear sway bar too, but they’re both identical I believe

Either is just fine, they're basically the same. Personal pref. Would recommend with accord endlinks. Want to say the whiteline was only ~140ish and another 30 for endlinks from Honda. Took 30 mins.

I had a bad experience with whiteline the RSB came bent a litle bit in the right side this damaged the end link after a week, then I disassembled it I bought another accord endlink and installed the OEM FK8 RSB this is one of the best mods ever, so my recommendation would be an OEM Either the SI or the type R in your case for the hatchback the SI will be enough, another warning is that the end link in the soft position is out of shape and may be damaged faster.

Accord endlinks are a recommended upgrade, yes.

If the product arrived damaged/out of spec, why not pursue it with the vendor? Defects/damage happen. Can't really judge it if you used a defective one.

That said, SI and CTR are cheaper valid options as well

He is asking about sway bars not lowering springs.

That's really odd, it's not easy to bend a sway bar unless it was some manufacturing defect. Did you reach out to the vendor who sold it to you, or to Whiteline directly?

We have Whiteline Front and Rear Sway Bars on both our Si's, and have nothing but good things to say :)

yes, im waiting to UPS for pickup the bar i bought this bar in tire rack but aparently the customer services is very very bad, yes i'm 100% sure this is a defective bar from factory the RSB itsell is very hard to bend, but in other hand the FK8 bar fits 100% perfect i can take the curves in more agresive way.
