front camber cannot be adjusted on the stock suspension. so if you go any lower than 3/4 to 1 inch you will need a front camber kit to bring the camber back into spec.

rear camber can slightly be adjusted, but not enough to matter, so a rear camber and toe bolt kit would be needed for anything over an inch as well to bring it back into spec.

front kits run anywhere from $300-500 or so

rear kits run around $150-200 give or take.

visit any reputable vendor here that sells suspension and they will have a kit or two for you to look at.

so pretty much all I would need is acamber kit for my front and rear, and an alignment after that?

how hard is it to install the camber kits

Once you understand what oem parts come off and how, the new parts go on in reverse order. The front kit is easier to install with the shock/ spring or coilover assembly off the car. Installing elongated toe cam bolts to get greater rear toe adjustment will be the most difficult thing since some grinding with a dremel is required (a how to thread does exist on this board).
