Default Shocks and ???

Heya guys. I'm about to replace the rear shocks in my 2012 Mini Cooper S Bayswater, and was wondering if there were any other "must-do" kinds of things that need to be done at the same time? Bushings, etc, anybody know?

I'm not lowering it or anything, just want to get back to that "new" feeling ride. Thanks for your time!

Car has 78k miles on it, the rear wheels were bent when we bought it used, we got them straightened out and it rides much smoother, but it seems the back end takes even little bumps VERY hard, so we're putting new shocks on it soon, was just hoping to get a jump on anything else we may need at the same time.
