Front LCAs

I'm currently in the process of stocking up on parts, gonna put them on all at once so I can do just one alignment. I have no experience doing this sort of thing so I'm getting help from a few different people around town (none of which own an 86). For reference, the parts I currently have, which aren't installed yet, are:

BC Racing BR Series Coilovers
AC Delco Camber Bolt Kit (x2)
Voodoo 13 Rear Trailing Arms
Voodoo 13 Rear Toe Rods
PBM Rear Lower Control Arms
Megan Racing Rack End Spacers

I plan to only drop about 1-1.5 inches. I don't track my car, I don't drift, and I generally don't even street race. It's just my daily driver, that I drive hard day to day. I've done enough research on here to know around what camber and toe measurements I should work towards. I'm on stock wheels and tires for right now, which is my next focus.

The reason I've spent about $2k so far is because I want to be absolutely sure I'm doing this right, since it's my only vehicle. I want to have everything adjustable so I can easily make corrections when/if needed.

Now to the question: Do I need front LCAs? Would they really help in any way? I've only come across two brands, Buddy Club ($405) and Megan Racing ($505) so I assume it's really not all that common. Most builds I've seen on here only include the rear LCAs and coilovers or aftermarket springs, so I'm wondering if I even went overboard getting the trailing arms and toe rods. The spacers are for the inevitable urge to drift at some point, just an overall enhancement just in case.

If I could find a pair for $200 or so this wouldn't be such an issue but after 2-3 months of buying parts I really don't want to spend another $400 on something I don't need. Does anyone have any suggestions, advice, input, criticisms, hot fiyah mixtapes?
