Default Lowering with S/S, replacing bushings, etc. - Please help with Final Parts Checklist

I've finally come to a decision! I'm going with KYB GR-2s coupled with Espelir springs for lowering my GS to eliminate fender gap with my new 19s while retaining the best ride comfort I can. I think this is an excellent setup, I will post some reviews, and would be glad to point others in the right direction after an exhaustive search effort.

Ok, I want to do all of the other recommended bushings, etc. while the car is under the knife. Can someone please recommend the correct items:

1) KYB GR-2s (With trimmed bump-stops, I have read trimmed 1/2 way?)
2) Espelir ASD springs
3) Steering rack bushing? Daizen one? Please recommend exact item.
4) Lower Ball Joint? Again, please recommend exact part so I have it ready for install time.
5) Outer tie rod end? Which part!
6) Am I missing anything???

Any other recommendations for common items I should swap out during install or tips/tricks, I'd much appreciate.

EDIT: Please also recommend the best priced vendor for the misc. parts. TY

Thanks!
Adrock

Any help here on the whole list of items I should do while lowering my GS?

I see the Daizen Steering Rack Bushing from the sticky, but various threads mention the other items w/o part info....

Daizen Steering Rack Bushing: price is $39.95+shipping (Part No. GS-2030)
