Next for my E are sidesteps. Does anyone have a pic of the Aires brand? Or another brand besides honda? Not that i don't like the Honda steps, i'm just looking into getting a black pair. (which honda doesn't have) :-x

If i'm not mistaken, i think Aires are all black

Hello bigred1,

I just did a search for Manik nudge bar.(another thread) and found this site. Just click on manufacture for pics and prices. Lots to choose from here.

I could get a pair of these and the nudge bar. Yeah! then paint them SOP. Hmmmmm maybee? Going to have to do a photoshop to see what it looks like.

Oh Yeah, Go Big Red.....into a bowl game hopefully??????????

I have been trying to buy the black ones for 2005 style side sills (wide). They don't seem to be available. That is the 1st pic of SS for 2005 I have seen and that looks like its on a EX-P already. Aries has said that SS is in demand. Few seem to want black but I like it. I like the 2 pad look. Honda ones look like a canoe. The black is aluminum and light I presume. I think the 1st ones fit 03-04 but not 05. They may not be motivated to offer black anymore.

Aires makes a better looking sidestep IMO. I think they are the ones!!!

And I personally think black on an E with black panels would look the best. Might not be the case with painted panels, but who want's those anyway?

I have the black Aries side steps on my 2004 E. (Pics are in the linked thread.) I liked the black on black better than the grey OEMs.
