Make sure you only buy two rear shocks instead of all 4! Save some money since your putting those tubular control arms on and dont need your quad shocks(lateral).
Plan on spending some cash for the alignment too. #1 priority should be CC plates and alignment if your changing springs.
Don't overlook your tires. Sometimes they can make more of a handling/ride difference than suspension upgrades...unless they are relatively new. Same with minor suspension parts like bent or snapped sway bar end links.
If a bunch of small **** comes up you might have to settle with something like KYB shocks instead of paying twice as much for higher end shocks. That's what I ended up doing back when I was on a restricted budget.
