From the research I've done on my Accord in the past, The camber isn't going to be that bad with a 2" drop, But if you don't want to go through tires every 7K-9K miles...I'd suggest a camber kit.
There are plenty on the market and they are not that badly priced.
Now an Alignment on the other hand is a MUST when you drop your car.
The Toe will be in a little once you put the springs on and that will effect the steering response, Especially in rainy conditions, which is dangerous!
Alignments on lowered cars average between $50 & $75.
Camber Kits for your Accord are usually about $100-$150 Shipped for the rear.
In your case, Camber adjustment isn't really necessary for the front, especially if your only dropping a max of 2".
Later model Accords have independent control arms in the front and you don't have the upper control arm pulling issue that you would see on Civics, Integras, Etc.....
