Wheels were also changed. Besides the bumper, I don't recall anything else aesthetically being changed.

Rear bumper was changed, although you can't tell. The grill was also changed. Some colors were changed(or renamed).

Grille.
Hood.
Side marker lights and bezel.
Wheels.
Side skirts.
Rear bumper.
Taillights.
Exhaust tips (not 100% sure about this one).
Etchings on windows say "Acura" instead of "Honda"

quickest way i can tell an '04 from any other model is the fact that is doesn't have the XM antenna.

Here's a thread, there are quite a few, searching takes some getting used to.

You mean the door lock confirmation? I think (?) the 05 was the first to get that.

More... forgot to mention that the Passenger airbag indicator light got added above the hazard button in 06, too.

Unsubstantiated marketing claims that the 6-disc CD changer will play CD-Rs with MP3s.

Well, kaliraver69 started listing all the differences, so we're just adding to the list. After all, if you just look at the title of the thread, it doesn't limit it to visual ;-)

Besides, if you really want to stick to visual....i'm sure we could hunt down and find the component that beeps and take a picture of that. take a picture of the throttle body, the passenger side seat motor, etc... =P

BTW, you can tell the difference between 04 and 05 by the XM radio antenna. 05 has it whereas 04 does not.
