With OEM wheels, stick with OEM lug nuts. Honda I think sold locking lug nuts which required a key to remove.

I own a 93 DX too, The bonnet bra is 60 something and and you can only get it at a Honda Dealer. GSR blades are worth that.

Personally, I'd skip the bra. I had one years ago (not on a Civic), and it was more hassle than it was worth.

Initial fitting took forever (and a lot of heat) to finally get it stretched enough to fit. Then once it was on, I had to clean the underside of it a lot because it would collect dirt, and turn it into mud. Then, once it was off for good, I had to polish the paint a lot to get all the fine scratches out of the paint that were made by the bra.

If you're particularly worried about stone chips and such, look into the clear film (sometimes called Starshield, I think) that some places can now install on cars.
