Suggest you do the same to the other side and you are set to go
That's the way to go for a street driven car and stock sway bar. If the car isn't driven aggresively you can simply remove the rear sway until you have time to get it done. If track driven I would put Wevo mounts in, positioned to accept a larger bar (to clear transmission mount) should you ever go that route.. but the stock bar may not fit well once you do that, check with someone that has done it.
