"Common courtesy", is values taught to us by society, such as good manners, holding doors open for others, not pushing in queues, etc.
"Respect", is something much deeper, aquired towards a person or people through time. It can be someone you "look up to", but it is wrong to think that these are solely people of higher social status or age groups, etc. I hold plenty of respect for a binman who I see return someone's wallet which somehow accidentally ended up in someone else's trash.
"Look up to" is just a figure of speech. "Respect" is more about somehow relating to people on a personal level, seeing eye-to-eye with them about some topic or principle, and because of that, seeing them as "euqals" to you in a certain way (not "above" you as the phrase "look up to" would imply literally).
Don't mistake "common courtesy" for "respect". People can do all the gestures of "common courtesy" because the context requires them to, such as in a formal business meeting, or a wedding... but they might not necessarily respect you at all, and might even hate your guts instead.
