Default Lowing Springs

What approach should I take about lowing my 2004 GLS about 1 to 2 inches all around.

Coilovers aren't needed if you are after a 1-2 inch cosmetic drop.

Get some Eibach lowering springs and call it done.

I say get coilovers still. That way you can have a 1 or 2 inch drop depending on where you going and still have dampers that are capable of controlling the bumps.
