I will point out that the braces are simply reinforcements that reduce flex by bracing across open areas, while the sway bar is an active component that changes the operation of the suspension. Not all people like the larger front sway bar. It is good to wait, you want to understand what you like and don't about the car before changing it.
I have all three and have experimented to be sure I understand the impact of each (the STB is NOT just for the look). IMO an adjustable swaybar is not needed or worth the expense unless you plan serious autox competition.
