I would get new shocks first unless you have the sports suspension. Then get the alignment to see wether or not you need the camber kit.

If you are going to wait awhile before you get new shocks then get the alignment.

get alignment once they settle, if you don't need a camber kit go with shocks

Well if he is going to change his shocks wouldnt it make sense to get the alignment after the shocks, because he will have to get another alignment after the shocks get installed since they have to mess with the suspension to get the shocks installed, which will more then likely mess up his alignment again. And he will have to pay another $70+ dollars to get another alignment.

there is no need for shocks right away. Get your alignment done and find out what you need to get you back into spec (it is possible that you will not need anything...highly unlikely, but possible). I have the Eibach springs and my front camber is out...I just bought the kinetix a-arm for now and the eibach rear toe and camber kit. Will probably upgrade to the cusco front kit once I decide on shocks in the next few months.

I would drive it around for about 2 weeks, then get control rods and have it
aligned.

Can you post pix of your car with the eibach pro kit? I'm planning on getting those and want to see what it looks like on the car. Thanks!
