Default 2000 civic lowering suggestions

Hey guys. Im new to the forum so please dont be too harsh. Ive gotten my first civic 2000 coup.
I want to lower it but have no idea how to go about it.
Is there any lowering kits recomended. One better that the other. Im doing this but would like to do it the right way. Not trying to slam the car just give it a better look and feel.

I apreciate any tips and pointers and thank you in advance

Eibach Sportline Kit. Not slammed but affordable, reliable, and not beat-your-***-to-death harsh.
Pair with SPC Adjustable rear camber kit and adjustable upper ball joints for best alignment.

I really like my Skunk2 springs and KYB AGX's. Make sure you properly adjust all the other chassis parts as you will have major tire wear issues. The guy who owned my Del Sol before me dropped it on Ebay springs without changing out anything and the car handled terribly. It also went through tires like none other. I picked up some wicked tuning upper control arms for the front, some spc upper control arms for the rear, and redid all the lower control arm bushings with energy suspension. I have had no issues and got rid of most of the wheel gap on my car. I believe Skunk2 has some 1.5 inch drops springs for around 200 to 300 dollars.
