Suspension Set-up Checklist Help

It's time to get a new set up and after a little bit of reading, I've decided to go with Tokico Illuminas and Tein H-techs. But I was wondering what other little things I should replace once I'm in there. Like Moog strut mounts, dust boots etc. Not sure what I need for a solid install.
Also, the pricing for Illuminas; lowest I've seen was around $576.
Any info would be helpful.

Thanks in advance.

^^ Thanks

To the OP, you're local. We should DEFINITELY chat on the phone. I can give you parts advice and can install the setup for you.

PM me your phone number and we'll get the ball rolling.

I wouldn't go with S-Techs or Eibachs. I guarantee you'll hate the ride after a month.

Seriously, PM me your phone number. Advice is free. Seems like
you need exactly the type of guidance I provide to every one of my customers.
