choosing performance shocks...

ok so i want to mod the suspension on my '11 3dr for fun and looks. sorted.

lowering springs and a sway bar seem to be the way to go. i'm familiar with the variety available, pros and cons etc. fair enough.

now i'm stuck with how to choose shocks (understanding that they're essential to the longevity of a drop job). im not too clear on the impact one set is going to have over the next...most discussion seems to place emphasis on spring progression and shortness affecting ride and handling.

where do the shocks come in? what impact can they have? any experiences to share? advice?

initially i was going to go all TRD to keep things simple and be safe within warranty but...hehe...
