The "MUST HAVE'S" when lowering ((newbie inquiry))

So Im in the market for lowering my 8th Gen Civic sedan. I have purchased some konig 17's. After talking with another member he informed me that Im going to need a camber kit.

So far this is my shopping list

Eibach 06-09 HONDA Civic SportLine Lowering Springs
Front & Rear Camber Kit (not sure from where yet)

Do I have to get new shocks as well?, I'm not trying be all ricey...just want to pizazz to the ride. Nothing extremely fancy.

So drop a comment with your knowledge, opinion, facts, jokes, whatever.

yup, stock shocks will not support lowered ride and will blow soon after.

other optional things are upgraded sway bar endlinks and bushings, front LCA bushings (energy suspension), tie rods (the old ones will prolly break coming off anyway), and possibly ball joints.
