driving rice sux!
last week i took off my body kit, (ONLY front bumper and side skirts) but i left my rear bumper the way it is cuz i figure the back has the least chance of getting damaged during the winter. i put my hub caps back on also so this is what i have left: rear bumper that hangs 2 inches lower then any part of the car, headlight eyebrows, windshield sticker in the back. anyway, the car looks typical rice; has that look of riceboy "work in progress". ever since i started driving liek that, guys who know some stuff about cars always give me funny looks and i even seen some people laugh when i drive by my college campus. its embaressing having a car like this, so i came to realize that how stupid does a person have to be to actually think when he drives half completed car (riceboys), how can he think it looks good. i'm sure people laugh at him liek they do at me right now, so dont the ricers have the common sense to figure out that there is something wrong? anyway, i cant wait till next march so i can put all my goodies back on with some extra stuff i'm planning on getting (projectors and upper grill). going from a car that gets compliments to a laughing stock is something that takes time to get used to prolly

Rep Power: 0 i seen a number of cars with just a nice front bumper and that doesnt look bad, as long as its painted. but having on the rear only looks horrible, i didnt think it would look this funky until i removed everything. look at the pics on my car and imagine it with only the rear on and then imagine those ugly *** hub caps the stock wheels come with, very very bad image

well the only reason why it looks funny is because it's the back lol!! it;s like wearing a 3XL shirt with some small tight pants i mean it just doesn't look right ....but hey it's not gonna be like that forever so wait it out and then when the winters over put it right back on!.....besides people should already know what your car looks like kitted so it really shouldn't matter but i understand what your talking about though!!

Rep Power: 0 the xenon kit doesnt have a full rear bumper replacement, its just the lip and i'm kinda affraid to take the lip off because it has a good chance of being damaged during the process. the corners of the rear lip could crack white i'm pulling it off cuz the 3M tape is pretty strong so i dont wanna risk it. but if i had a plain rear bumper laying around i would definatly put it on.

Rep Power: 0 wow, what as a$$hole that guy is (braireos), it actually thinks that its smart *** remarks are gonna make me realize to start typing properly online. what do u consider mods on ours cars that actaully do something? besides the turbos, nos or any stuff that can take off like 5 seconds of its stock time (basically stuff that u can REALLY notice, not liek just an intake or something)? and there are a lot of people on this site that just have a kick *** looking cars that are slow as hell, r u calling all those people riceboys? since u make yourself seem so gramatically supiriour to me, then u should have had no problems figuring out what i typed up in 2 minutes, it said (took off front bumper, side skirts and rims). and since ur gramatically perfectious *** has time to waste (which i'm sure it does), then u can spend some time correcting every flaw i made in this post. i dont wanna see u come around here no more.

Rep Power: 0 anyway, when i was taking off my sideskirts, the 3M tape was really really stuck, it took me a while to get it off. because the fornt bumper has 2 90 degree angles, i'm really afraid that i might crack it or something, thast the major reason y that was the only thing that i left. and for the guys who leave thier kits on during the winter, arnt u afraid that u'll mess it up? a lot more crap can happen during the winter... esspecxially in philly
