Default 1996 Civic DX: anything & everything

I just bought a 96 honda Civic. It's a dark green/pine green color. 4 door sedan. Cloth Interior.

There's nothing besides what is stock on it. I'm working on the sound system, already bought a new JVD KD-PDR30 center console and am working on speakers/amps/subs.

What small and inexpensive things can I do to make the car look better. The only thing I have planned to do right now is to put blue/white bulbs in the headlights.

What else can I do that is at least relatively inexpensive that will look really nice on my car?
Also, does anyone know the neon/underglow laws for colorado (colorado springs)?

pretty sure in most states the underglow law is you can have them but you can't drive with them on.

things that would help out the appearance is lowering, rims, front lip, tints,

anyone know what style rims would look good on a 96 civic?
i know rims can look good but can get expensive depending on what you look for

what exactly is a lip? is that just like the front bumper of a body kit?

and with the drop, how are those done?

go to either of these for a look at some wheels

tirerack.com
discounttire.com

a lip is just a small plastic peice that bolts on under the front bumper, kindof bringing it closer to the ground

a drop is adding aftermarket coilovers a.k.a. springs or shocks
