Need and Should Have are two different things. I run sport lines on my car and I've run them for a few months now with no rear camber links and my tires are fine. Should I install them yes, are they worth the money.. Ehh.

The only brand available right now is SPC Camber Kit for the rear, you don't need a front kit. Google SPC and you'll find it online for purchase.

Technically you don't need camber kits once lowered, but the inside of your tires will wear out a lot faster from the negative camber. This is why camber kits are adviced. SPC is a great company. My 04 has the front & rear kits and they work wonderful, you won't regreat it.

How hard is it to install the springs and the camber kit? do you use aftermarket shocks too?

Its not really that hard bud if you have the right tools. The nut on top of the front struts might be alittle tight if you dont have air tools.

As far as the camber kits...its easy to install but a pain in the ass to get the right adjustment. (thats why we have alignment shops.)

Yes, right now I'm using the stocks shocks. They should last a while before better aftermarket ones comes out.

Hope this helps
