Damper to match to VWR springs?

I have had this combo since summer and it works nicely. The ride is pretty much as stock, with the moderate lowering and rebalancing giving better turn in and overall handling. Is a good OEM+ solution.

@colesey did you have different shocks? Or oem shocks? As I'm tempted to get the VWR springs only but not sure if it will make the ride harsh on standard shocks

I believe he has the full kit, which is around the £500 mark. The standard dampers are pretty harsh, but the springs feel about right for my tastes. Any stiffer and it'll be in Civic Type R territory!
colesey:
Yes, it is the full VWR dampers plus springs combo that I have.

Found an online quote of £520 delivered for the combo. May have to order a set after Christmas here's the link.
