Shocks for Civics

Im actually posting for a buddy of mine who has a 2003 Honda Civic (2-dr basic Ex I belive) and he was looking into dropping it. He is set on the Eibachs 1 1/4 inch drop, but he has a hard time finding a selection of shocks for the vehicle. The only ones he has been able to find so far are the Konis but they are $500. Is it possible that no other companies make shocks for an 03 Civic? We looked and Bills. kybs, and so on but none of ht ecompaines had anything listed for an 03 ivic. the latest year they listed was for a 2000. Any hekp would be appreciatd.
thanks

Thats becuse Konis are pretty much the only thing availible (at a resonable cost) Look Up Moton shocks for the RSX, they fit the civic but cost about $800 each (800X4 = 3200 for shocks.....)

Spoon Non-adjustables from the EP3 fit. They're about 950 for a set. They're rate matched for the Spoon Progressive springs, so if you can find something with similar rates, you'll be good to go, but you CANNOT use the spoon springs... they're for the hatchback and they're not dimensionally the same.
