it can severely deform the lower rocker panel plastic and the supporting metal tabs in the rear if the blocks or something similar are not used. The jack points are well over an inch above the bottom of the plastic rocker panel. The plastic bits are getting harder to find and expensive to replace.

+1 just get them in case, that way you will not damage anything. Most people buy them and throw them in the storage area.
