I have replaced the Starter Motor/Solenoid with a reman Denso unit, the Starter Relay, and the Throttle Position Sensor, and it seems to have basically solved most of the issues I’ve been having.

The Denso will last the longest, but I have a habit of buying the local store brand only because they give you a no-questions-asked lifetime warranty.
I'd opt for a set of 1 step colder plugs. Ideally non projected tip like [Denso 5749](https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/vw-spark-plug-denso-5749) or [NGK 4905](https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/vw-spark-plug-ngk-r74388). Though these are costly.
I'm a fan of the Denso Hybrid blades. They don't start lifting up at the ends over time like the flat aero ones, but are still sleek and aerodynamic.
I would go OEM or get a Denso from Rockauto since Honda's alternator is kind of sensitive.
I just replaced the alternator on my 09, it cost me $190 for the part (Denso refurb - shipped, including taxes) from Rockauto.
Denso alternator was like $350 and it took us like 3 hours as total novices and that includes the 3 trips we ended up taking to NAPA.
Did my own alternator, Denso 300.00. Took about an hour.
Just make sure to buy either new OEM, used OEM, or a good rebuild like Denso. Parts store ones have a bad record of either being bad directly out of the box, or crapping out in short order.
I recently removed the old Alternator (Valeo OEM) in my 2011 Hyundai Accent and went to replace it with a new Denso alternator and it won\u2019t fit into the bracket above the oil filter. After measuring the mounting spacing of both I found that the new one is 2\u201d wide and old one is 2 1/8\u201d.
