Remember, it you put springs on the car you have to get camber kits or your tires are gonna be f'd in about 4 months. The inside tread will wear out almost instantly. The cost of tires in a year are more than waiting for coilovers. Plus coilovers feel way better and have adjustability.
Like the splitter so long as it is extended as far back under the car as possible and doesnt required the stabilizers. They should aslo make a pairs of side extensions and some under body aero like the evo. All of which I would purchase and install.

under the 08-09 lancer section for parts on RRM website...
you see a video of the installtion of the splitter with the stabilizer rods and you get to see how far the lip is installed.
very easy installation...
on the springs....i thought it was vice-versa...on the camber kits.
i heard that with coilovers, it's an automatic necessity for a camber kit.
but i think that if you lower your car in general, your going to need it, cause over amt of time...your car will require it.
but don't quote me on that.

Yes you absolutley need a camber kit. I had springs and it will torch the inside of the wheels ( as in wear them out, thread showing and everything ) within 4 months. And if you absolutely have to get springs then be sure they have the right spring rate cause if not, your going to slap the living **** out of the suspension.
Most coilovers come with adjustable camber plates. Its part of the assembly.

Most of what ive scene/read is that camber kits arent needed with this car unless your really slamming it.
Also, most of the springs out, if not all, arent designed for the RA. Theyre GTS springs, that will cause alot of problems.
Do you have any pictures of your car with mentioned springs to show the amount of negative camber it produced.

Coilovers are great if you buy a top-level kit, ie. not Ksport, Megan, Tein Basics, etc. The adjustability is a double-edged sword, it's great if you actually use it but if you're a "set it and forget it" person, it's a waste and a possible liability.
when I had the RRM V2 Grip springs on my 08 I had no problems with camber, didnt buy the bolts either aligned right up close to specs, not going to be perfect but it was darn close.
