Default Suspension Question..

I've searched and read the various suspension threads about upgrading the suspension with intension of lowering and improving. FVD has what they call a "sport suspension" upgrade that they say is meant for street and minor track use. They say that it is "a winning combination of Bilstein and Eibach...Progressive springs for the street". They have this setup priced at $1695.00.
Does anyone have any input on this combination? They also don't specify if this lowers the car to ROW.
Any input appreciated.

I have Bilstein HDs and Eibach springs on my car. For reference, ride height at center of fender lip is about 25 3/8 inches front, 25 rear. I like the stup so far, but have the RS sway bars which i am sure contribute a lot to the way it handles.
after purchasing the eibach springs, i have read that they may sag over time compared to the H&R springs.
the FVD price seems a little high if all you get are springs and shocks/struts.
here is a similar setup, but with H&Rs, from Rennlist sponsor Carnewal.

here is a picture of my ride height (taken at the German Autofest):
