Double swaybar

One of the aspects I did not like on the w108 is that it leans a lot in corners. I know it's not a sportscar, and I am not interested in finding out at what point the tires lose traction, but I always wanted more reassuring, flatter cornering.
A w108 showed up at a local salvage yard, so I bought its front swaybar and installed it parallel to the stock one. The only modification I had to make is the use of shorter endlink spacers sleeves to make room for the second bar.

It's still not a sportscar, but it does corner with noticeably less lean.
