I'm not quite sure how it bent. There are a few factors that contributed to it.
1. The FD has flimsy sway bar mounts, which are known to bend if you race the car. So far, it's seen about half a season of autocrossing, which is probably enough to do it.
2. The swaybar is one of the lowest points on the front of the car, so if it's been bottomed out (which I think I've done a couple of times) that will be the part that gets damaged.
3. I remember hitting a rock about a year ago on the highway. It wasn't that big, but it was on that side and it might have caused this or contributed to it. I never noticed any damage before, but you never know...
So I bought new mounts, but it turns out that the swaybar is bent and I need new endlinks also. I think I've found a source already. See you all next month!
