Default need help on getting coilovers/springs on 94civiceg

So im wanting to lower my car, its just for looks on the street, im not going to be going to the track or going full speed besides the freeway,

looking for decent coilovers,
also i know that you cant adjust lowering springs but is the performance any different? im going to keep my 13inch wheels so i dont think im going to go any bigger..

i dont want to spend over 1,000 just to lower my car.. need help..
any suggestions?

dont buy coils! if your only street driving than a desent set of springs and shocks will be fine... the konis are awsome and not very expensive...

buy coilovers. you will just regret not having them once the springs are on and arent low enough for your liking. almost all brands/types of coilovers are in the ~$800 price range new, and around 4-500 used. also most companies can/will rebuild them good as new for like $50/each (~$200)

Coilovers are just fine on the street, it's true some wont ride the best but it's good to be able to adjust them.

Functionform makes good coilovers for dd, they go low and ride pretty damn good.
