    Did I buy an CTR rear swaybar knockoff?

    I recently bought a CTR rear swaybar from a nationally reputable shop. However, I have reason to believe it may be a cheap knockoff that they pawned off as an OEM CTR rear swaybar.
    BUT BEFORE I POINT THE DIRTY FINGER...

    Could anyone describe the markings of an OEM CTR rear swaybar??? If you have a digital picture that would be great. If not , a simple description of any identifying markers would do...spraypaint marks, part numbers, included hardware descriptions would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for your time,
    Alex

    If I remember correctly, my bar has a glossy black finish, and some sprayed-on green where the busings would go.

    My bushings came in a sealed plastic bag that said Honda.

    Did your bar come with new brackets and bushings, or just new bushings? I just received bushings, but no new brackets. When I threw it on the lift it soon became apparent the old brackets were too small. Looks like I'll be fabbing something up in the short run...

    I cant remember for sure, but I think I just got new bushings, that looked big, but compressed down just right when I put them on.

    you can still use the stock bracket with the new bushings..should work.
