Man let those mids be mids. If you gotta have the Chi's paint the back and call it a day. Messing with the tongue, switching the tag and doing the paint just to make that shoe look like a shoe which it isn't is too much.
As a person who has had a couple of customs myself, trust me when I say you're still not going to feel like you have the real thing. Save yourself the time and effort.
The replacement tongues from eBay come with the tag on though. The only thing to paint would be the lower heel panel. I don’t own a pair of the current mid model so I can’t address the quality being used, although from what I’ve seen in stores over the past few years, they are pretty garbage.
