1" drop front, .5" drop rear
00'Si. Would you guys recommend getting an alignment or should I wait a couple of weeks and order a camber kit then get the alignment?

with that much of a drop i would honestly not worry about getting an aglianment or even a chamber.. im dropped 2.5/2.25 and its not that bad at all..
but if you do want to get an aligment then i would get the chamber kit then get it aliagned and done the correct way..

you'll need an alignment but I wouldn't get a camber kit. the camber on a drop that small would be corrected with an alignment.(I think)

With that slight of a drop, don't sweat the camber kit. Definately do get the alignment. Contrary to what some may think, an alignment is for far more than just making a car "track straight". Any drop will affect toe settings, and toe settings too far from the norm can cause other problems like poor turn-in, understeer, squirrely high-speed handling and excessive tire wear.
Rule of thumb is that anytime you change ride height with the intention of driving on it, get the toe set.
