Default Lowering an 01 Em2

Ok guys, before anyone jumps on me ...I've already checked the search feature for my specific question with no luck yet. That being said I'm xtremely interested in lowering my 01 Civic EX. Problem is I'd really like to go Coil Over(for obvious reasons) but a guy intown I know who works on tuner cars for a living told me that you have to go drop springs on my year of civic, or you have to cut the strut or something?! So before I buy either, I'd like someone who has done one or the other to comment please and tell me what would be easier.

Thanks everyone

Check the Honda-Tech marketplace for F2 (function and form) or K-sport coilovers. No cutting necessary, just a camber kit needed for the rear, since the fronts come with adjustable pillow mounts.

They make both for the car...lowering springs and complete coilovers. Just depends upon what you want to get and how much money you want to spend on a quality setup.
