You lowered you car that much without CC plates? If your serious they are plates that allow proper adjustment of your Caster or Camber when you lower your car. The stock ones can only travel so far. You should probably get them ASAP.

Looks damn good man. Yeah get some caster camber plates and an alignment and call it a day until you can get some springs and shocks. From what i am being told you will want to run a Fox shock/struts since they are shorter which is better for a lowered car.

he doesnt need CC plates yet. maybe when the fenders sit below the top of the tires, then he'll need cc plates.

its all about personal preference, but try taking just the fronts out before taking all of them out, and see how you like the stance. with the H&R Super Sports i have, having just the front iso's out, gives it a great rake without having much wheel gap in the rear.

maybe its just me, but i hate seeing sn95's that sit almost perfectly parallel to the ground. they have no aggressiveness to them when they have no rake.

the SN95 body line rakes up towards the back though so even when they sit level they are "raked." IMO as long as the rear spacing isn't less than the front it looks good.

i ran fox 4cyl springs up front and it lowered teh hell outta my car lol its sits super low now... as far as caster camber plates, its not the only way to get the correct adjustment outta it. but it does help.
