Rice taken to a new level

i always though rice was generally limited to the cheaper cars and kids and all, but that changed today.

i was driving home from school and i see this black bmw z4, no big deal. as i get closer i notice it has clear tail light, WTF! who the hell puts altezzas/clear tails of a fcukin z4?! looked like ***. i didnt have a cam to get a pic, although i wish i did.

this is what they looked like:


notice the price too!

almost 500 for damn altezzas

whats so rice about altezzas...? people have their own taste. if i dont like your blacked out headlights and i said they were ghetto cause you blacked them out yourself would that be considered ricey? i dont know...i thought rice = fake mod (or a mod that looks like it improves performance, but doesnt).

Turn signals are clear in some countries, but not the whole assembly. Example... European E46 lights have clear lenses with amber bulbs. US ones have amber lenses.

I know what you mean about rice moving to expensive cars. I've seen a g35 coupe with clear bumper and ricer white lights all around. Looks so cheap now. Also saw a vw passat all riced out with crazy chrome rims and big wing. I see bmw alot too.

I agree, but I have seen a Z4 with those lights smoked and they look quite nice, esp on the anthracite color.
