Aftermarket sway bars, stock endlinks?

Car will be lowered, maybe not to the extreme, but this is the look that always seems to catch my attention when looking thru albums. Already have SPL's front and rear camber arms, along with Fortune 500 coilover setup. Why I am even questioning using the stock links after what I already have in it to put on in beyond me. I'll take all input though!!! This is not a DD, but do plan on driving the car frequently when weather permits.

I got the Hotchkis sway bars, front and rear. Just installed the SPL end links. when I adjusted the end links. I could feel about an 1/8" of play in the stock links.
