The best way to describe it is for straight line speed go for the civic. If you want fun in the bends then go for the Clio. For me the Clio is more poised and more forgiving in the bends. So for Santa pod type driving go for civic and for Nurburg stuff go with the Clio.
I had an ep3 and absolutely loved it. Both cars are very similar. The civic is a bigger car and better built. The Clio on the other hand is like a go kart. No matter which one you get you'll have a lot of fun.
Don't bother with the racks as they'll scratch the paint work amongst other things. Get a roof rack either the genuine Renault one or go for Thule like Leeshez has done. Thule is probably the best bet.
Looks tidy. I do think it needs lowering. Give it a try yourself fitting the springs. If you take your time it's easy enough and I'm sure if you got stuck some one on here would lend a hand.
