Coil Overs and install for a 2001 Honda Prelude

Hello,
I am looking for quotes on lowering my 2001 Prelude (non SH)
I am interested in pricing on:
-Lowering Springs
-Coilovers
-Installation
I have no brand preference, but I am not interested in any non established brands. Thank you for taking the time to read this.

I would definitely purchase adjustable coilovers vice springs for the Prelude so you can adjust ride height and dampening at any time.
I currently have Buddy Club Racing Spec coils installed and lowered 2.25" for the past two years and it's been fine with no rubbing issues running 215/40/17s.

Notable brands I would suggest are:
BC Racing
Koni Shock + Ground Control Coilover
Tein Super Street Coilovers with Pillowball Mounts

Brand new you're looking at minimum $900 to $1500 for a set. Do some research because there are a lot of compatible suspension parts between 4th gens and 5th gens and even some gen Accords.

Since you have the base model I would also look into stiffening up your suspension such as a rear sway bar and front and rear upper strut bars.

And finally if you are lowered, you might want to look into getting some adjustable ball joints so you don't get uneven wear on your tires.
