Front changes
I would like to change around my front a little bit, maybe some grills/meshes, different lights, and maybe a CF hood. What are your suggestions?

Lots of grills on ebay for like 30 bucks or less, some stainless some plastic mesh, I kind of like the newer looking plastic mesh versions.
You can buy a kit to D-I-Y mesh from ebay also, just make sure you get some thats the real deal and won't get all rusty and dingy later.
Headlights are also avilable in several styles, including some remakes and different factory looks, projectors, and even some off the wall looks. They are also on ebay, or can be purchased somewhere like Procivic.com or other online stores. Hoods are there too.
You can sometimes run accross the hoods on ebay, but I would be easy with buying body styling there, unless the guy that sells the product is offering some sort of worry free return policy or warranty.
A lip kit is probably what most people would suggest, they are easy to find, cheap to expensive, and come in a variety of styles. They will give you a factory lowered look without doing much at all.
I even thought about painting my factory grill, or buying one of those mesh versions and painting it. They are everywhere.

RE: Front changes
personally i think a lip painted to match looks better than a CF lip unless you have quite a few carbon fiber parts around your car. Check ouit jhsplaya08's Civic to see a Carbon Fiber color scheme;. looks realmean. Or if you wnat a new front bumper mines for sale. PM me if you want it cuz i think it'll fit. What year is yours?
