Necessary to change shocks when lowering???
Excuse the laziness of not searching, but; I'm pretty sure I heard you do, but is it necessary to get different shocks when getting lowering springs? I'm not talking about coilovers or anything, I'm just trying to figure out how much I'd have to spend to lower this car..

It's a good idea.
It isn't absolutely required, however the ride won't be optimal. Many might even consider the ride bad or dangerous.
It really depends on the quality and condition of your existing shocks. But if they're stockers with >50k miles, they should be replaced.
