Lowered 987 Question

[husker boxster]

I'm considering a Cayman S but it's been lowered. That won't be a good thing on Omaha streets. Would changing the springs be the only thing needed to get it back to std ride height or do the struts need to be changed too? Also, in looking at the Bentley, it appears removing the struts are not just 3 bolts on top and 2 at the bottom. Looks kind of complicated. Threads I've looked at don't give much detail and I didn't see anything on Pedro's web page. How tough would this job be? I don't have a spring compressor or a ball joint thing-a-ma-jig. Sorry for such a newbie question, but I have 0 experience in this area and I want to know what's involved. There are lots of Caymans out there, so need to determine if I should pass on this one. Thanks.
