I would suggest ordering the camber kit now and have it with you when they do the alignment, or possibly install it before they align the car. Nothing is worse than paying twice for an alignment.

I believe your stock struts will be fine.

Love the look of the site!

RE: BOP BOX drop suggestions...

i didn't need any camber when i ran my s-techs, i also had 7" wheels with a 38 offset.
i guess it would depend on your offset, is you have a lower then 20 offset thats when i would be thinking about camber and rolling the rear fenders.
also most camber shims come with a toe corection that you shoud realy have an ajustable suspention to get it set up right.
if you are sitting too high or too low it will change you toe it a way that will chew your tires right off.
a friend of mine hade -5 camber (because he had 9" wheels in the rear) with TRD springs and he lost 3/32 of tread in 400 miles, a tire only comes with 9/32 when new.
it was because he was not sitting low enough.
witht the ajustable suspention you can raise and lower it to get the toe correct where you wouldn't be able to do that with just springs

I don't think you'll need a camber kit with the S-tech drop; I didn't need it and I was dropped on DF210s with my first-gen.

You'll need an alignment, that should be it.

Just a few photos of how she turned out. The ride is equal to or better than stick and no scrubbing or issues with speed bumps or low drive ways.

Thanks for all the suggestions!
