Shamal 9 Speed conversion into fixed

so i bought a set of shamals for my new build and wanted to know how hard it would be to convert these into a fixed gear wheel. currently there is a campy 9 speed hub on there. what are the costs associated/difficulty ? do all i need are spacers for the hub ? can i just get a new hub suited for fixed and have the rims re laced ?
