Oem or aero sides

Hey guys i havent been able to see a difference in the 01 oem sides vs the 03 sides.

there is 2 models available, the 01 style and the 03 aero style., both oem Honda and fit. which were you looking for?

I was emailing places and found out there are u types. I know what the 03 sides look like but not the 01 side skirts any pics or links to peepz gallery?

aero sides for sure.

If I was getting a lip kit, it'd be aero sides & rear, oem front (I have foglights)

id get the oem sides, aero front and rear. If you look at the picture of the Aero kit from the back, the side skirts are a lot lower than the rear bumper. Also, they're frikkin $450!!!!!!!!!!! THe OEM skirts are only like $270, and I like the look of them more; they just sort of plainly drop the side of the car down, without adding anything fancy.

Actually most body kits are like that. If you look at the front of the rear bumper on the aero kit, ( touching the back of the rear tire) it is almost at the same exact height of the side skirts, then it contours up. It is symetrical, and looks great IMO. You can get the aero sides for around 350, 450 is dealership price. Two of my co-workers will be ordering the entire aero kit in about a month.

Hey guys just wanted to clear something up


hondaautomotiveparts.com (aka Majestic Honda) has EVERY and ANY part that is on your 7th gen as well as the all other current Honda models. If you break a clip accidentally or lose a screw on the floor somewhere, you can find it at http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com/

http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com/ also has the same stuff that handa-accesories has, except without pictures. But handa-accesories does not sell more than the options available at dealerships. http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com/ is a dealership based in the Northeast USA, so they sell all genuine Honda parts at a lower price than your local dealership would.

I love http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com/ and have been ordering from them for almost 2 years. It seems that handa-accesories does have cheaper prices, so I would order a body kit from them. But they won't be able to help you with a center console conversion or getting replacement parts for your interior etc.



try to post some pics up

I'm glad I got my OEM kit earlier before they raised the prices. I like it better than the aero.

Yeah, regular OEM kit is a bit plain. Type-r front looks nice.

I like the OEM pieces. They flow more with the lines of the car. I think the aero sides are more like aftermarket kits...ignoring the original design of the car and just add lines and scoops wherever they'll fit

www.hondacuraworld.com also has good prices, great customer service and they ship FAST!!! I saved nearly $30 on our OEM metal look trim kit over H and A.

Now if they would just make the OEM sides available in Magnesium Metallic...I'd be happy!

i think the oem kit looks much nicer, the new aero kit looks more like an aftermarket kit, the lines don't flow, and i really dislike the front end, its too hard a slant.

The front and sides on the regular OEM kit are the same for each body style. The back needed some modding.

I know the front aero kit will most likely fit coupe and sedan. Don't know about sides or rear.
