What springs would you guys recommend? A friend told me to get a set of Eibach Pros. What do you guys think of those?
No one cares if any of you think this thread blows. I'm the OP. Its helping me. So instead of being an ass, maybe you should try and help too.

I had eibach pros on a couple of other hondas, a v6 accord and a civic Si. Both were great. Better looks, a small improvement in handling and little if any sacrafice in ride. But I have zero experience with the S2K prokits. Still, I like the idea of springs since they give you a bit of a boost in performance and appearance. Just don't go too low unless you are prepared to sacrafice some handling, some ride quality, and some more $ for camber. Also don't do it until you can also afford a fresh alignment.
The best money you can spend on handling is tires. Start putting a little aside now so when you wear out the ones on the car you can get some nice RE01Rs or RE050App's or maybe some z1 star specs.
But your best appearance upgrade is a clay-bar kit, a high quality wax or polish system, and lots of microfiber polishing cloths or 100% made in USA white cotton towls. Like someone else said, the car looks great as is. When its clean and shiny and the top is down I GUARANTEE you will get plenty of nice complements and more than a few second looks from the ladies.
And for performance try this!

Lowering S2k is just plain dumb if you're not gonna need the extra stiffness. It's low enough as it is. Plus there a debate whether it actually makes car handle better or worse.
IMO best mods for this car for starving student.
USED OEM parts. factory lip, and spoiler IMO really brings out the sportyness of the S2k.
for AP1 model.s AP2 v1or v2 wheels makes it look really sharp, and can be had for pretty good price.
VAFC and test pipe with dyno tune will get more power for money than intake and exhaust.
