Should I buy all at once or do one item at a time?

I don't find that to make much sense lol new shocks can only improve over my worn oem shocks with 65k miles on em, springs yeah well It doesnt make sense to install shocks then take them out and install my springs lol & camber well if I install my springs & shocks I'll need to get aligned, why pay to get aligned then install my camber arms then pay to get aligned again. Plus how much time it would take to do 1 at a time. I was asking if I should do 1 at a time to not fork over like $600 at once but I did anyways lol.

The logic is very simple - if you throw on all your mods and you are automatically introduced to a strange noise or unpleasant characteristic, you'll be spending more time diagnosing the problem, if you can even find the problem. Compare that to how, if you installed the mods one at a time and you now come across the noise or problem, you can simply go back to check your last mod.
Beyond that, if you are modding for performance and actually do push your car to it's limits, you want to get to know your car and all the little mods you've made to it, and modding slowly is always the recommended way to go about doing this.
But of course if you're only modding only for looks and aren't doing the work yourself, or are just doing simple maintenance or repairs, then go ahead and throw everything on at once. Little things that will affect performance won't matter to you as much since you won't ever be pushing your car to it's limits. If this was the case, then why would you even need to ask?

i think both of us hopped on those Tanabes for a steal! From more-japan.com?! i installed mine already. im debating on going back to stock since i may need to teach the mother of my soon to be child how to drive stick and also possibly save me some cash from getting the spc front kit. i love the drop. hate the wear on my tires along with necessary expenses that are included when dropping a vehicle. i.e. front and rear camber kits, shocks that will need replacing. scraping and bumps ftl!!!
