Be polite, and be on time- once you have managed the first two remember to be yourself. If you put on an act or try to hard you are going to get nervous and then it's going to be hard for you. Also people are not dumb and they can tell when somebody is not being genuine. Don't lie to anybody.
You should also talk to your girlfirend about how you feel, it's quite normal to feel the pressure under this circumstance and I'm sure she will understand

In a word, manners.
Be polite, friendly, chatty (but dont over do it) show an interest in the conversation without dominating it. Offer to help where appropriate and above all give the impression you are relaxed. Avoid too much affection with your girlfriend but make it clear you like ehr. Dont act bossy or rudely or dismissive of her. Make yourself sound like someone with a future, potential, interests and a good catch.
My last bit of advice is that if you cant be brave or bold in a situation, pretend you are. I dont know if its courage, but its so close nobody will tell.

Be polite and respectful to her and her parents, regardless of your own personal reasons for liking her. To her parents she is a little angel, no need for them to know how you think she might not be .... however, if you genuinely like this girl for her personality, charm, intelligence, etc., you won't need to work too hard at impressing them because they will spot that right away.

If you are staying for a meal offer to help in the kitchen. They will probably say no, but it will be noticed. Ask about and take an interest in the family. People usually love to show their photo albums (in my experience anyway!)

Be yourself, your girlfriend likes you for those reasons, her parents should aswell.
Stay away from crude jokes and innpropriate behaviour (unless her parents are down to earth and normal, try not to say "I love slamming your daughter in the a s s )

It's always hard to try to impress someone, it's far better just to be polite and respectful and as natural as you can. Parents have pretty good bullshit detectors!
