Is the up side in this picture forward? Want to confirm so I can get in right the first time.

Correct with bar facing the rear and drop links to the shock tower.

Not certain, but I think your bar in the picture is upside down.

It's pretty obvious when you get it under the car. The long part of the bar goes up against the trunk floor, then the arms of the bar go toward where the back of the trailing arms are.

The bends in the middle of the bar go up toward the trunk floor in order to make sure there is clearance for the transmission.

OP pic is correct...the first bend in the arms, after coming out of the straightaway, curves upwards. (had to go out to the garage and look at mine to confirm)

The picture is correct with the droop of the side arm down toward the floor and the link balls forward.
Put it in upside down ? the curved arms will hit the floor crossmember over bad bumps.
Also if you find it upside down you'll have to remove the muffler to fix it.
I recently corrected it on a friends car.

It looks upside down to me too.

I thought that the arms curved down. It really only works one way in the car.
