If you look at the second picture, it looks as if there has been a fracture for quite some time (darker bit is surface rust). So...

Im in the market for a front sway bar. Who has one and how quick can they get it to me...

    Good question!. Unfortunately, I dont have a good story to go with it. I have been doing a little work at Defence lately and parking is a real problem, particularly for contractors who dont work from 9 - 5 in the same place. End up having to park on a grassed area which requires climbing a gutter to get to. Yesterday, coming down the gutter, there was a real clunk noise. Must have just fatigued over time. Got the clunk a couple more times on the way home and then decided to have a look. The bit in the picture was hanging down next to the wheel.

    Thanks to Bennoz, I now have a replacement which will hopefully be fitted next week!

    Decided to go standard. Wouldnt have minded a whiteline one, but that would make my suspension setup even harder than it already is and im trying to avoid that. I have to get the bilsteins re-valved - They are killing strutt tops like there is no tomorrow and creating rattles in the car.
