Default 1995 honda civic eg hatch project

Before I start this thread please leave all negative feedback AWAY.
Alright, so hey guys , I'm 16 and this is my 95 eg hatch project. I bought the car COMPLETLY, 100% unmolested. Original everything with 95,000 miles, yes, only 95k. It was automatic and beat to SH*T. I work at an italian restraunt and all the money that I get goes into my car. I have a 92 original gsr integra. This is just another project on the side and when this project is done, bye bye GSR!!
My current plans for the car:
Convert it to stick
dr-21 silver jmags
slam it on decent coilovers
midori green paint job with tons of body work
all the other good stuff on the way
I'll post some pics now:

The car is at the body shop now, I picked up some extended lug nuts and a oem lip. My duckbill wing also just got shipped in and it's all at the body shop now. Should be done in a few days, I'll post pics of the after effect of converting it tomorrow when I stop by the shop.

Any suggestions on some good full body coilovers that I can buy for a good price? I'm not trying to spend $800 on suspension, maybe like $350-$500 max. Any idea's?

Read the post. If you have something negative to say just don't say it at all. I'm not going to fight with anyone I'm just simply making a project forum for those who are interested.

If this is a build thread you're supposed to post pics. Otherwise it doesn't belong in a technical forum. Read the rules.

Disgracelands. I mean Racelands. You're not going to get good suspension for that little money. maybe stick with that set of Ebay coilover sleeves you bought for them or save up more money. If you're already cheaping out you might as well just leave it stock.

Alright guys so I just picked up a oem front lip spoiler honda calls it. It's pricey as hell because it's oem, $181.00 new! It has some scratches but I'm most likely painting it the same color as the car so it will cover it all up. Or should I paint it black and leave it black? (I'm painting the car midori green with silver jmags, also painting the duckbill wing). Lmk your opinions. Sorry if you can't see it that good, it was a pain to take the picture.

Those tires do not look safe the way they are stretched.

im on function and form type-I, i dont recommend them but they are cheap and do the job.

keep the lip black, as well as other detailed parts, ie bumper grilles side molding and side skirts, it has a good contrast with the midori.
