No your shocks are fine (that is if they aren't blown from the car being lowered too much). Just get springs and neccessary camber hardware

yellows can move the perch a little bit, but ull want new springs eventually if its too low........dont do it yourself unless you KNOW WHAT YOUR DOING, cause those springs can kill people

check out the guide at the top of the forum for more options, but i would say that since you seem to be on a budget the h&r sports would be a good choice. they are good quality and a decent price they lower somwhere around 1.2 to 1.5 in.
