Yep, now my Aerodeck has a carbon fiber hood
I think this is one of the most unique Aerodecks in the world :-)

I will post more information about my car when 3axap ('89AccordLX(Rus)) will be online and able to correctly translate my comments.

carbon fiber flip light covers are really necesarry, i never liked how it just came down in the middle and the light covers weren't carbon fiber. other wise, looks great, glad to see the aerodeck is back in action.

[MrBen]

Way to go Paul! I am happy to see it again! Looks 10 times better. :)

[guaynabo89]

Nice hood:D

Your car looks great. One thing though, you really need to lower it. Maybe some sportier rims.(not chrome)

Either way good job.

[Paul Aerodeck86]

Yes, i agree about the rims and lowering... I already ordered H&R Springs 40mm drop and am now waiting on shipping.

About rims - when i find good rims for the change I will buy them. It's very difficult to find good 4x100 R16 rims...

[guaynabo89]

Sounds good.

Make sure you take some more pics when you're done.

I like the way you take pics, how about some daytime pics nextime.:)

[BITESIZE]

Bling Bling, nice ride mo fo. I really liked the C F hood.

[Paul Aerodeck86]

I will be able to make day pictures a bit later. I only got the car fixed two days ago. :-) Also, while I was driving home after the night photoshoot, I visited an old photo scenery location: the lake. There was once again fog and I made several photos, one of which I am showing. You can compare the pictures before and after the accident.

P.S.: The sky in this picture, as well as the picture taken before the accident, is a product of Photo Shop. :-) In reality the sky is normal monotonous clear blue. Plus the sun rises from the other direction.

;) I thought it was too good to be true.

[HostileJava]

Looks awsome.

[guaynabo89]

Your aerodeck has a sunroof!

Is it an original Honda one or aftermarket add on?

If its original Honda than aerodecks are an exception to the rule of no factory sunroofs for two doors.

[HostileJava]

Is that no sun roofs and no moon roofs? My coupe has a power moon roof. Looks factory to me.

[guaynabo89]

Trust me it isn't.

Look around the edges and you will see the black frame outlining it. The stock 4dr sunroof has no frame and the rubber around the glass meets up with the sheetmetal of roof.

Next time your around a lxi 4dr compare and you'll see what I'm talking about.

[1989 DX R]

Oh man, Paul has the mega-photoshop skills...AND a really AWESOME 3Gee.

That hood looks so good...makes me want to get one!

I'm not exactly sure what you mean, the moonroof looks flush with the roof and it has two buttons next to the power windows thingy to control it that looks factory. Are you sure the SE-i didn't come with them?

[NXRacer]

thats a KILLER looking car! Forget everybody who says you need headlight CF trim. IT LOOKS GOOD THE WAY IT IS. mad props to ya!

[BITESIZE]

Post some more pictures, pictures, pictures, pictures.

[IMWezel]

Damn Paul, that's one good looking Aerodeck. It makes me want to instantly go do something on mine.

Keep up the good work

[cdscowboy]

VERY NICE!!! I always love seeing your car, Paul. Aerodeck's are hella sweet! I think I may have seen one last time I was home, but I'm not sure cause it was in the rear view mirror that i saw it. And as always...great PS skills!! :)

[zero.counter]

Very nice desktop background!

The coupes and hatchbacks had dealer installed sunroofs but thats about it.


OPen the sunroof on the coupe. If you look at it when its open you will notice that there is a black outline around the edge of the opening. THat is part of the frame for the aftermarket sunroof. If it was original there would be no black frame and the sheetmetal would angle down around the whole where the rubber seal of the glass slides up and pushes up against


If you had a four door lxi you could tel te difference right away.

I found out that the coupes and hatchbacks didn't come with original sunroofs when I wanted to put the sunroof off a 4dr onto my hatch. The roofs are completly different.

[88' Accord Ltd]

Its great to see the Aerodeck back Paul! Its quite a relief to know you didn't decide to trash it.

[chronicsinners]

u need to ditch the chrome and lower your car.. otherwise cool

[Hash_man_Se_i]

Damn paul, that looks awesome! I love the CF hood, and I really want one now.

I am pretty sure that every se-i coupe I have seen here had a sunroof.

[guaynabo89]

No.

If it did have one it was an aftermarket add on where they cut a whole in the roof and installed it.

Can you enlighten the rest of us? I don't know what that means.

[toastyghost]

i like the wheels but they need to be bigger with suspension that high.. the height will look fine once you drop it a couple inches though. the way it is now it almost looks like a mini suv which would be cool with some bling bling dubs..

[Gregs89AccordLxi]

damn, the car looks way better, good job!

Hachi-Go!

[L3G10N]

hey paul, the aerodeck looks like the hatch... same front bumper, same tail light...

can you tell me if the rear bumper are the same and the rear molding too?

[Sabz5150]

Lookin real good! Shave your doorlocks and install keyless entry :D

I think rear molding is different. If you post detailed picture of it, i can say it exactly. My rear molding have grille - like M3 :D, i don't see it on hatchs... About rear bumper - post detailed pictures.

Sorry for bad english :crying: :D

[markmdz89hatch]

it's not bad english at all Paul. It's very easy to understand you.

anyway, as for the rear moldings, are you able to get any of these moldings from the Aerodeck? I would be interested in seeing if they fit the hatchback.
