ok... so i have a 2001 civic ex coupe.

i plan on swapping over the following parts:

- tokico blue HP struts

- tein s tech springs (1.3/1.4)
**OR**
- tanabe df210 springs (1.8/1.8)

- front and rear adjustable camber kit

I would like to know your opinion on which springs to run, i have both but i'm debating on if the tanabe's will be too low (or poor quality?) I plan on installing a mugen or spoon style lip kit which should decrease the ground clearance by another 1-2 inches..

Also (and more importantly), What other suspension components would be required to install this setup? Strut mount kit ($50?), strut boots? bump stops?

Thanks!
