Lowering on 20s?

Lowering on 20s?
Hi guys, I just had a few questions. Tried searching but there weren't any specific threads.
Well, I'm planning to lower my car on 350z S-techs in the near future.
I have 20s on my car with offsets 25FR. Wheel size: 8.5F/10.0R. The tire size in the front is 245/35 and in the rear is 275/30.
I was wondering if I need to roll my fenders for the drop--from what I understand, it'll be about a 1.2/1.1 inch drop.
Will I need to get camber kits for the front AND the rear? Or will one suffice? If so, which one should I get? (front or rear?)
Does anyone know an estimate for how much labor would cost to install these springs and the camber kit?
I have an oem bumper and was wondering if my bumper would get destroyed or considerably damaged if I were dropped this much.
Thanks!

You may or may not need a camber kit, you will know this for certain once your dropped and take it to an alignment shop. I needed camber kits with a 1" drop. If you end up needing a camber kit, don't be cheap and not get them or you will be paying far more to replace the tires at shorter intervals. Keep some distance from curbs and the bumper will be fine.
+1 using a ruler to see which size spacers you will need.

I lowered my car on ebach springs with 20 inch rims. Gave me a little more then a 1 inch drop and the alignment shop said the camber is not too bad, but ill still get camber arms when I get new tires. but I did have to get my rear fenders rolled because of the spacers. I also have spacers on the front but the front doesn't scrape on bumps. They charged me 45 per side so I paid 90. And I have a nismo bumper and a lip on that already low bumper. I still don't scrape anything. I can get up pix if anyone needs.
