1. Fake rotor peices that cover your rear drums
2. Huge racing stripes that are brightly colored. like orange racing stripe(s) on a green car
3. Ridiculous emblems. GTR emblem on mustang. Type-R on Camry. (*theres actually an old camry driving around my town with a huge TYPE-R banner that streches bumper to bumper on both sides of the car.
4. Infamous "ONE WIPER CONVERSION" LOL WTF is that? how the hell are u gonna see in the rain?!?!
Originally posted by Hawk i guess i'll try to clear up what we were going for. We were trying to say how WE (as in our opinion) think its dumb to make a car look fast before you make it fast. IMO a body kit should be the last thing you do to a car, if you want to do it, not one of the first.
whoa he didnt, hawk just stated that everyone on this site with a body kit(without a K20A2 swap) is a ricer.....
our cars are slow get over it, i bought mine for the looks and the milage i hope to get out of it...already have 84,000 and still owe just over 2 1/2 more years, i will be happy if i get it payed for before i have to replace the engine.....no way could i make it that far in a "fast" sports car.
any way "rice" on my good friends, if its done decently you will end up with a beautiful car.
btw: my tag is RICER and i bought a U.A.B. (university of alabama, birmingham) tag cause there is a dragon blowing fire across the tag, looks cool i just need to make a frame to cover up the uab part.and in the terms of most people on this site i am a ricer. well guess what i dont care. my car will look great when im through with it.

thats not what i said at all actually, i said that WE as in me and my friend, beleave in OUR opinions its dumb to buy a body kit first. Now if you wanna do it thats your opinion. And if you like it thats your opinion. We think its dumb.
Now if you took personally anything i said, maybe you should rethink who your hooking your car up for. Me personally i could give a shit less what other people think.
Originally posted by OmegaStauf You also forgot - hyperblinkers
i used to have those...i guess im an ex-ricer?? lmao
i dont really think those are rice, strobes maybe...but just cause your flashers blink twice the speed so that others see them better when you drive fast...i actually think its better.
and the one wiper conversion is pretty bad...but the only reason people do that is to have it like the mercedes. the MB had that from the factory and they have no problems with visibility in the rain.
i think trying to make your japanese car look completely like a german car is bordering riceness...like z3 fenders AND single wiper conversion AND kidney grills AND etc. would = rice IMO
bodykit should be done last??? whaaat? I would put a bodykit on my car bc it would make it stand out and not look like the other civics i see. Plus it looks nicer and then people would envy you if you had a kit and what not. Remember when we had that meet hossam? When the guys from LA and what not came down here and you were like "haha the guys from LA got hooked up cars and the guys from SD are stock." haha. OOOO ya, how could i forget you telling me: "I WISH I WAS A RICER" I remember you telling me about that. Be a ricer so your car wasnt stock, it looked good, and all that stuff. Just to be cool, if your car has Rice or is rice, just say its a show car.
I got Windshield washer LED's. I dont have them on the whole time I drive around at night. I have them on when im out waiting for friends to meet somewhere or if im going around the mall.
Now I got RICE on my car. I put a VENOM sticker and 2 NOS stickers on my car. It looks nice and clean BUT ya its rice bc its BS.
IMO i was a ricer to, i had a partial body kit (lip) before any real performance mods, but i realized i can't have a body kit, cause i can't drive careful enough. And when i took it off, i thought my car looked alot better without it.
