Re: 05 Civic - AC Low @ 43 - High @ 50.... What does this indicate?
Both pressure readings should be around ambient temp (in F) when the system has leveled out. Since it was 85-90 F I would expect the low and high to both be around 85-90 PSI. It's low.
Even then, I think the minimum pressure to run the compressor is 28 PSI. Was the compressor running at all or just the fans?

Well, I am no expert... But I can say when I turn on the AC, the clutch engages and I can hear the fans come on, etc.
