With a budget of 300-400 dollar price you can pick up a use set that include aftermarket shock and coilover. I just sold a set of ground control coilover with tokico white for $300 and an other with tockico blue for $200. Both included oem top hat. Check out honda-tech for sale thread and craigslist if your on a budget. You can always find good deal. Just make sure if you buy use shock. Make sure they are not blown.

You can usually find out buy press it down and if it doesn't come back up is blown.

Why thank you.

I ended up going with KYB AGX shocks and Eiback pro kit lowering springs. I love the combo!! I think I spent 290 on that setup (all BNIB on Ebay and local pick-ups so no S/H). Good luck!
