This front bumper from DuraFlex is actually pretty close - except you'd want to blank off most of the scoops, of course
1996-1998 Honda Civic Duraflex JDM Buddy Front Bumper Cover - 1 Piece

Here's a quickly edited mock-up based images on one of the images from the above link. This version has
- Upper grille block
- Generous rectangular stagnation point intake (this is Australia after all, they reckon metro temperatures may hit 45C - 113 Farenheit - this summer. Not including heat island effects.) - not sure if this is the best shape, oval section with rounded edges to avoid separation might be better.
- Bump at the bottom as per "option (f)" ... well, pretty close, anyhow.
- Air curtain intakes - moved back a bit compared to the intakes in the source image, to avoid an unnecessarily long internal vent. Not sure if I'll do this yet.
