Oh Cool, Black Maxima Is Lowering His Car Finally!

Ok, my pops decided it's time for me to lower my car and he said he would help me out with it. I want Tokico Illuminas and Tein S-Techs for the drop. I understand I will need some dust boots since mine are torn very badly. Are bump stops necessary? And I also want to replace the strut bearings. What are all the part numbers? What other parts will I need? I would like to replace just about everything when I'm down in there.

Thanks, Aaron

KYB dust boots (have bump stops in them)
You may need camber bolts.
Gotta find the link to the site with everything on the sturt and part numbers.

I think that my dad has only decided it was time to clean my room when I was younger, never that my car needed to be lowered?

He never said it needed to be lowered. I thought of that myself. He said it needed new shocks. My mom is the one who controls the cleanliness of my bedroom.

Oh yea, a camber kit is another thing I will need. What is the best one to get? I didn't know KYB boots had Bumpstops in them. Thanks for your help MDeezy!

Ok so the list so far is:

Illuminas
S-techs
KYB Dustboot w/ bumpstops (SB103 for front, SB108 for rear)
Strut Bearings (go to dealer)
Strut Mounts (go the dealer)
Eibach Camber Bolts

How much are the Strut Bearings and Mounts?
