Talking Basic Handling Mods for my 2006 V6 Pony Package / California Edition?

Just bought from one owner 2006 V6 California Edition w/ Pony Package. Overall it handles decent. I want to improve handling, cornering ability with the smallest cash outlay. Car has new set of Goodyear Eagle Sport tires. I also don't want for car to be much more uncomfortable, stiff, bouncy. Car will mostly be daily driver and would like to do beginner level hpde 2-3 times this year. Here is my idea:
1.BMR lowering springs or Steeda Sport springs.
2.BMR adjustable panhard bar.
3.BMR camber bolts.
4.Rubber jounce.
I am trying to use stock shocks and struts if possible.
Whatya guys think? Ger.

With lowering springs you can't use the stock shocks and struts. They will wear out quickly due to the lower ride height.

You lost me at stock struts and shocks. Spend what's necessary to get a balanced system. Doesn't matter who you get it from. My go to choice is always Ford Racing Performance Parts. Eibach has an inexpensive kit for about $800 at CJ Pony Parts.
