They are after market blue lug nuts a friend gave them to me and no they haven't got loose with my si wheels
Front lip doesn't look right...
License plate would look best where it was originally intended to be
Lose the H + SI Emblem; keep the grill clean
Rid of the lug nuts or get red ones. If you want some color coordination; the blue lugnuts kill it. Your coupe is majority black with red hints; the emblems, taillights, tow hook (seems red but could be orange) being those red hints; stick to it. Sure the Red/Black combo has become a cliche, but it's because it works.
The rear red-H emblem may work for a while; but a debadged rear end looks much cleaner. Can you post another picture of the rear end, because the trunk lip doesn't look fitted right from that angle.

Idk exactly how to add .more picture I'm new to the site .,and I'm gonna put red lug nuts . Been saving up money for school so haven't really been able to spend on the car and I was thinking of going carbon fiber lip the spoon one and hood and trunk . Or should I just do a 2000 front end ? neep some comments on what to do
Look into doing a retrofit. Really easy to do.

How about if I do a siR front and rear bumper ? And get the lip or should I just get the lip changed lmk what you guys thinks . Thanks so much with the comments on how I could improve 
That's all up to you man; if you love the way your car looks that's all that matters but if you're coming here for opinons that's what i'll give you.
Doing a 99-00 front end is surely done often but it's a very minimal difference plus very expensive too, not an easy job either. I think the only Honda/Acura worth doing a front-end conversion would be the USDM Integra to the JDM Integra front-end. Then again, there are Honda Domani / Acura 1.6 EL / Isuzu Gemini front ends that can fit on 6th Gen Civics too (intended for Sedans, but have been done on hatchbacks and coupes) not as nice but beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.
Good luck on getting the red lug nuts there.
I personally think Carbon Fiber hoods+trunks+lip combos are a bit of an overkill on a black Civic but sometimes it flows right on different colors; and here's where I found it to flow right (click link for the album http://www.flickr.com/photos/jcabigting/5331962397/in/set-72157625641115945/)
