Help with understanding 128i options for Front strut bar and sway bar

I have a 128i sport, I am not sure what a proper way to approach the following:
Front strut bar:
Do all of the following replace the current stock V bar that connects near the window?
- aluminum BMW perfornance
- AC and similar parallel shape
- M3 kit on Turnermotorsport.com that replaces the stock V in the same way
Which is more appropriate for the 128i since it has a weight difference with 135i?

Front Sway bar:
From what I searched th 26mm e9x is recommended over the sport package piece for 128i
Will I need to balance it with a stronger rear sway bar?

Thanks for helping out a noobie
