i am looking in to lowering my car. i have decided on springs not coilovers and my question is can i install lowering springs without putting in new shocks. if yes do i need aftermarket shocks or will factory shocks suffice?

Factory struts will probably be fine for a while unless they're already worn, then you should just replace them all at once to save the hassle of doing it twice. KYB struts are pretty cheap OEM replacements, you can order front and rear for not much more than $200.
