If your car is lowered I would also suggest shorter swaybar endlinks, but either way I would add them to the list, get stock length if stock ride height. What about CC plates? (also only needed if you're lowered). The inner tie rod ends are cake, you will have to cut the the press fit clamp thats on the boot though so count on getting a replacement or you can use big heavy duty zip ties in their place. Make sure you have a BIG adjustable wrench or a good set of box wrenches that go up to a large size (above 22 mm or larger than 1 in) to get the inner rod off the rack. If you dont have any, just go to autozone or pepboys and rent their inner tierod removal tool. All very easy stuff, just dont forget about the simple things...make sure everything is assembled, then put the car on ramps or load the suspension close to ride height to tighten all the suspension bits, torque to specs if you can. Haynes manual can really help you out though and you'll find that you can skip some steps and get it done quicker than the book explains.
