Yes a lower grill block and air dam is a planned mod. Also the steering rack is loose enough that I am going to replace it. Would a manual steering rack work? not only cheaper...if it saved me gas I'd like that even better!

California98Civic suggested airdam and grill block, I've been rolling with both, but I just ripped my air dam off. Working on something new
Go with synthetic oil and a good set of low rolling resistance tires when it's time to change.
My fave mod so far, dollar for dollar is a B&M short throw shifter ($60) and Energy Suspension poly shifter bushings ($10).

Watched your vid, nice!
Okay so the advantage of synthetic oil is?
and yes LRR tires are on the list!!!
I build a custom shifter bushing and have a nicer shift knob on the way!
I'm looking forward to my mods!
Thanks everyone!
