Sway Bar Brand

I have some light blue sway bars and I'm not too sure what brand they might be. There's no sticker on them or anything really to tell. I'm wondering if anyone would know what kind of sway bars I have? The fronts are a lot bigger than stock and the rears aren't too much bigger but they're definitely larger. Here's a picture.

measure the diameter of the front and rear.

The front doesn't look like racing beat, just looks like a painted stock one.
Red bushings are probably just polyurethane bushings

Racing beat is 28-29mm
Tanabe is 27.5mm
Suspension Techniques is 27mm
Factory is 24mm

I already compared them to the stock ones and they're a lot bigger in the front and also it's pretty heavy too. The rears are also a lot bigger the stocks. The paint had chipped off in some plaves and it seems to have only that one layer of blue paint. the paint doesn't seem like anyone repainted them either.

How many mounting points are there on the front bar? Suspension techniques is the only brand I know of is adjustable and comes in light blue. I have one sitting in the garage and that thing is beefy as hell.
