I like the lip. Do you have drums in back? If so, swap it out for some discs.

Some EK9 mirrors would really compliment the car, instead of those "Dumbo ear" mirrors that came stock on USDM 6G Civics.

I assume your talking about the lower grill. Don't paint it, if your going to take it off, use a dremel or a blade of some sort and sand it down smooth. I'd would only do that though if you have an intercooler.

To finish your car off, get some front bumper license plate plugs and it would be perfect.
