Suspension Upgrade - skid plate? camber kit? 850

Gonna buy shocks and springs for my car real soon. I searched and found all the info I need...except

What should I get along with the suspension and change out at this time to save on labor frustration and charges.

Here's my list so far:

- Bilstein HD Shocks
- B+G Springs (1.6" drop)
- Shock mounts (should I go Polyurethane and deal with the noise????)

1. I might pick up a skid plate down the road, but do I need it with a 1.6" drop?

2. Also, do I need a camber kit?

3. Can I do the install myself. I've done it on my Integra (double wishbone susp.), but is it fairly simple on this car? I have access to a spring compressor.
