"Brutally simple" is a key requirement for this one, although I may well make a more sophisticated bullnose for the Civic.

You could leave the lights where they are.Then provide fenestrations(window openings) in the new nose which diverge as the move away from the lamps.If the new overfascia has a simple plan curvature,clear plex could be bent around the curve and attached to the outside.No compound curvature necessary.
