What coilovers were installed? Did you install them by yourself or a shop did it for you?

Retracing installation procedure is the first step. Were springs preloaded?

From the first picture, it looks like the tension strut is making contact with the sway bar. You may have to install shorter link-ends to provide sufficient clearance.

Did you install longer aftermarket link-ends? If yes, try reinstalling your factory link-ends

Unrelated to your issue, but where did you get the adjustable end links from?

I would put factory end links on.

Also, in the second picture it looks like the top part of that end link is bent.

Shop installed them backwards (left was on passenger side) which was causing the end links to bind and bend. They reinstalled properly and what do ya know. issue resolved.

Retracing installation steps always helps. Glad to learn that all is well.
