fwiw, Speedsource makes the same size front bar for GrandAm that is sold exclusively through MazdaMotorsports for 3x the cost of this one
ptuning.com sells the bars for the same price, but with free shipping

Received the bars today, went to take a pic and discovered I left my digicam at work so no stiffy pics for MissyK yet
quality looks very good, bars are powdercoated a nice gray metallic color, supplied with black polyurethane bushings and silver zinc-plated brackets, but no grease fittings

the adjustable endlinks only adjust their length to add or avoid pre-loading the bars in the static position
the holes in the bar arms allow you to change the effective stiffness of the bar for tuning the balance, it's all based on lever arm length, the holes closer to the bar pivot point (the D bushing) create a shorter lever arm which results in a stiffer bar rate and the holes farther away from the bar pivot point create a longer lever arm which results in a softer bar rate
they're not the same thing
