Koni Yellows with H&R Race springs?
I am looking for a decent setup for my daily, and I was thinking about doing the H&R race springs with Koni yellows. I would get the Sports but I kinda want to go lower than 2".
Will the drop be too much to fix with a camber kit? Anyone running this setup?
Opinions? Suggestions?

You may need to correct camber, you may not. Its not going to be horrible, but it wont be stock.
It also depends how you have the shocks set

the h&r race springs are 2.5" front and 2.25" rear. I know i will have to adjust the camber.
Just not sure if i will be able to adjust it enough to fix it.

it wouldnt cost you much for camber correction,$100 tops
But if you have your shocks set high you should have a huge prob. Also get an alignment right away. I did and am dropped 3.50 inches for 2 years on the same tires, slight wear but not horrible

i have had both cars aligned at firestone with the skunk2 camber kit. no problem with camber but the S2 camber kit has a tendency to hit the inside of the fender

question 
why don't you go for an adjustable coilover kit ? h&r does make good ones, if u wanna stick to their products !
http://www.hr-spezialfedern.de/index.php
look them up there, f.e.
i guess the yellow koni dampers + springs aren't going to be that much cheaper.
if you got money in spare, kw coilovers get your car down even more, without being cheap crap. a kw v2 might be a great addition to your car - i got a v1 and am absolutely happy with it.
