I'm trying the same thing...it's coming on monday. I have an atomic blue though. If the black is too glossy, try painting it matte black. I've seen a few civics with matte black grills and they look pretty good.

I didn't paint it. I bought the NHBP Si Grille and shaved off the Si bracket.

You'll need the base of the grille if you have a sedan. Actually, here is everything that you need.
