If you just want the gap removed, I'd just go with springs. Go with coilovers if you want to vary the ride height from time to time.

There is no usual drop . Just don't get ractive coilovers they suck . you make the drop you like . 2.0 is a nice drop will cover all your gaps . go with good springs TRUST ME !

i won't use the word usual so loosely anymore, i just meant enough to fix the gaps. but i definately won't get anything shitty or cheap.
