Question regarding extra parts required for upgraded suspension

Heya all, stupid n00b question here that I think I already have an answer to, but after my little fiasco with buying bimmer lights *cough, cough*, I thought I'd ask...
I'm about to order an Eibach/Tokico set for my GXE, and I was wondering if there were any extra mounting brackets/plates/bubblegum that I need to order as well as the suspension (I'm also going to order a camber kit to go with it) or if they'll bolt on/come included with the suspension.
Thanks all!

bump stop/dust boots, strut mounts, and while your at it might as well rebuild the rear suspension with all new bushings and the front with control arm bushings.

I did all that because mine was pretty worn and the parts arent that expensive. I have a brand new car suspension wise though...I did strut bearings too just for the heck of it but really didnt need it.

I think the general concensus is to replace bump stops/dust boot and strut mounts.

Alrighty, guess I'll give Kaleb a call at Courtesy for that stuff I wasn't sure if I needed anything special just to mount them, thanks for the input!
