Default Looking for suggestions

This is my 1st Civic, i'm not new to the tuner scene or to civics (all my buddies have had them). I just never owned one myself. I'm just looking for ssuggestions from you guys. I'm not trying to get crazy proformance or style wise. I would like to keep it simple but nice. For example, i will do exhaust but don't want it to be loud.
I bought the car with DC headers so just looking to put a test pipe with N1 muffler with silencer.
I already ordered Tein lowering springs 1.6" in the front 1.5" in the rear. Also replacing the stock spoiler with a M3 style carbon fiber, i like the subtle touches.
Just looking for suggestions.
i'm thinking something like the last pic.

intake ftw! Read this: https://www.hondacivicforum.com/m_279591/tm.htmbefore you get the test pipe. Honestly, the gains arent worht the bad smelling exhaust, white fumes, bad for the enviroment and the raspy sound. Keep the cat, or atleast get a high-flow cat, not a test pipe. Magnaflow or Randomtech are your two best bets. Other than that i really like your ideas man your car is sick alreayd and the drop will look good too. Also with the exhaust, save the muflfer money and get a nice catback, you wont regret it

subtle is good, i agree an intake would be a good way to go... something like an AEM long tube one.. makes decent power and wont kill the grocery budget...
