Default One leaking shock, what to replace

I bought my car 2 years ago with the Front passenger shock leaking. I am now looking to do this neglected repair and get a new shock. From what I understand, it's best to replace both fronts, but my question is; is that all I should replace? Backs as well?

I just want to have the car handle as good as it does new. My car is an 03 with 131,000 miles.

I am just lost on what I should replace to basically refresh my suspension to get it back on par, as I don't want to dump money on unnecessary parts. I also don't want to miss something either.

You can probably find a lightly used set of OEM shocks and springs (probably still assembled and ready to bolt in) for less than $200. There are so many sets available that they aren't worth very much, regardless of mileage.

Here's an OEM set with only 34k miles. https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/112...ck-suspension/

I also have a set with 55k miles (MY02) that I can give away for free.

You're welcome.
