Neons have struts. And go with Tokico for that.

The Neon's "shocks" are integrated into the strut, so you cant repalce one without replacing the other, and that is why we call them "struts" not "shocks".

The Tokico HP Blues will hold up much better with lowering springs compared to the KYB GR-2's.
