Do I need a camber kit if I go for coilovers?

Hi guys, I drive a 2008 Lancer Ex 1.5 (as we call it here). I ordered a DGR coilver set online and waiting till it arrives.

But a lot of people tell me that I will need a camber kit additionally. I am not going to lower it till it looks slammed, just about 1.5 inch drop would be fine for me. I have no clue how much the stock setup would allow me to lower, without going for a camber kit. And if I should get a camber kit, please give me some links on which one I should get. And whether I should get for front and rear both. Or a mere camber bolts would suffice?

Please help me. Thank you.

Quick update on this. I fixed the coilovers last weekend. It has pillow ball mount so front camber was corrected using that. But the rear still sits -2 degrees So I'm getting a set of rear camber bushings soon. Cheers!

Oh btw this is how it looks now:
