Eibach is probably your best bet. They have to be under $250 shipped from tirerack easily.

Tanabe makes a set that sound exactly like what you're looking for. .8" drop and only a 5% increase in spring rates over stock. I want to say the model is ?NF210?

Very slightly. Apparently they feel almost exactly like stock and drop it just enough to look good without risk of scraping the front or affecting the geometry too badly.

Edit: If I were in the market for springs (I'm not right now), I think these are what I'd get.

I had Swift Springs about 0.8" drop all the way around and loved them. Felt very close to stock.
