95 Civic - Brake noise rear and front
[>:]I recently hit a curb head on, not seeing the median and jumped it going at least 30mph. Now sometimes when I brake, coming to a slow stop, I hear a faint clicking noise.??? On top of that,my front wheels hit road bumpshard.What could that be?? And though this next problem has nothing to do with the impact with the curb. My right, rear wheel makes a thumping noise when I brake as well. Shocks maybe?? Need serious help here.

Here's my two-cents worth of advice:
You need to provide the forum with more information by inspecting the front and rear suspension for damage. Start by jacking up the front end and supporting the car on jack stands. Remove the front wheels so you can easily see the suspension and brake components. Look for loose, bent, and broken parts (for examples of the suspension, see four pictures of 96-00 Civic below and two posts that follow). Also inspect your tires and wheels -- they may have been damaged by the curb impact.
Do the same for the rear.
Post results of your inspection, and I am sure that many helpful tips will follow.
Good luck!

Very likely to be some major damage underneath going completely over a curb at speed like that. Have someone put it up on a rack and inspect it if you don't know what to look for yourself.

It is hard to tell what isprobably the cause without seeing it in person. Take it to a mechanic. I think you are trying to avoid the inevitable, expensive frame/chassis repair, by asking a question here.
Pictures won't help unless we can see a part that ismajorly FUBAR'ed.
