post a pic of your car as it is now if you have one...but in my opinion..
def paint lips, if your fog housings are black then paint them but if they are the gunmetal grey color keep them that way. as for paint colors..are you wanting an oem honda color or custom. either way there are alot of nice honda colors. its mainly what you want and the look you are going for, but i understand you are looking for opinions so cool. in my opinion, id go with electron blue pearl (si blue), super sonic blue pearl, phonix yellow, championship white...lol i dunno there are so many nice colors. if i ever win the lottery im gonna get a civic of each color lol. but do you have a certain color scheme goin on or anything?

here it is as of now.
brown
i have an si wing to put on it, but im having second thoughts on it. what do you guys like better. with or with out it
im in between with that...si wing is the only wing i would consider. it looks nice, but the other half of me likes it wingless..
looks good the way it is. I wouldnt repaint unless there were some defects in the paint already.
WHITE!!!!!! w/ the bronze wheels u were talkin about. Paint the lips but not the fogs.
15 inch gold rims+the green. FTW.
paint lips but don't paint the fogs. Car looks good with or without the wing so i'm undecided there. That green looks good as it is and EBP looks good too. I say, if you really want a change of scenery then go with EBP.
Hey... my answer possibly included colors he would like.
I'd steer clear of black though. While it looks good clean and new, it will be more of a pain to take care of than a paler color since every scratch will show up more than it would on another color.
