OT: Need Ricer assistance, For my Acura Options

[ninefourteener]

I've been on the RSX forums (or at least viewed them), and I must admit, I'm irritated with all the kids that have put body-kits as thier utmost priority. Not to mention all the kids that seem to obtain all their parts (stereos, wheels, etc) by stealing them from someone else.

I'm trying to do the RSX tastefully, without overdoing it. I'm trying to do it as Acura would have done it, but didn't.

So far, I've installed a VERY nice stereo, but haven't overkilled it with gigantic speakers and amps.

I bought a nice set of 18 inch wheels/tires, with the hopes that they would "match" the car, not draw all the attention to only the wheels.

And Last night I installed an Acura factory A-Spec rear spoiler. Again... I think it looks much nicer than one of those gigantic aluminum rear wings.

QUESTION: My next project is to install 1.5 inch drop springs on all 4 corners. Enough to give it an aggressive stance, but not make it look like a low-rider. I've done some research on this, and from what I understand, replacing the springs is all I need to do. No alignments, no camber adjustments (unless you drop more than 2.5 inches). Is this true?

Also, this will be the first time I've done springs. Is it tough, or is it something I can just look at, and with a little time and patience, just do?

Any special tools I should get before I start?

Thanks for the help!!!!
