This is the journey of a ricer...because he haz RICECAR!

Once upon a time in a rice patty far far away...

The first car I bought was an 02 accord:


i joined v6performance.net and was a big time member there.

i became ricer.











more rice added.





then being the dumb-idiot-ricer that i was, i decided to cut my springs to go MOAR LOWERZ... (i had eibach sportlines + tokico blues)

then BAM!!!! the tree hit me...i swear. it hit me.









good bye v6p.net, i shall always remember you and all the things you've taught me and flamed me when i WAZ LE NOOB


HELLO 7thgencivic.com

i need to take you all on a little history lesson of this forum (civicforums).
it was originally called 2k1civic then it was turned into 7thgencivic. it was till the end of 2005 when i changed to "civicforums." the site was filled with AWESOME people in the 7thgencivic days (still are).



this is how i bought my 2001 EX manual civic.



note: yes this is california. but in bigbear during the winter. im a boarder.

first ricer mods: fogs, slips (kennykid2002's fav) and TSX retrofit.







make it MOAR shiny





then i put koni/groundcontrols. moar low. moar yellow.



then MOAR RICE.







spent a lot of $$$$ on my ricecar.



like in car rave-light-rice-show



and carputers...


and JDM river fresheners



and this is how my rice car for a while.




THEN I DO PHOTOSHOOT WITH MEMBER HEREz.





moar pixs in my photoshoot thread (a LOT of rice pixs):

https://www.civicforums.com/forums/4...85-photos.html


and i did another retrofit (g35 reflector). did it for fun cuz i was bored with TSX projectors.





and LED oem style tails





and of corse err ricer has intake for power that doesnt exist.




and RSX-S 21mm rear sway bar (not the regular 19mm).



stock



monster 21mm



and i work my civic hard.



then somebody surprised-butt-attack me and ran off.





even google street view...damn you google street view.



then i slowly put it back to stock:







no moar spikes...



now im almost completely stock:



made another retrofit





AND SO.... the inner ricer force was too strong.


RICE ALL THE THINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

but needed new tires.


new konig rims:


wrapped in falken Azenis rt615 semi-slick dot race tire.



then i hadd moar practical stuff. like SS lines, rear caliper conversion.



added polyurathane mugen-rice lip



AND it sat for like this for a while.

Rep Power: 351

alright... so now is here i stand. i just finished painting it earlier this week.























slightly higher angle:









let me know what you guys think. comments or critique is good with me.

 
Rep Power: 192

Damn that looks awesome! Howd you paint it?? And is it a flat white?

 
Rep Power: 811

nice ive always liked white. and not sure why but "your" white looks better for some reason.

 
Rep Power: 290

It's flat white, and super white.
Taffeta white has a strange yellow hue to it, so a pure white looks really nice on our 7thgen body lines

I plan on dipping my car flat white too...and getting bronze rims.
James is beating me to it.

@James
Comments?
WHY ARE YOU USING YOUR G10?
LAZY *** :P

Lol, anyways, you said you rolled on the primer, how'd you get the angles like your skirts, lips and stuff?

Damn man!!!!!

 
Rep Power: 351

correct. i did the $50 paint job (actually only $40 so far). and it was rolled on. no one i tell believes me. use a smaller roller and on the really hard to reach parts, use a paint brush...literally painted my car. lmao.

and my G10...yea... it was smaller and lighter than the cannon... #wordplay

 
Rep Power: 290

Did you use a foam brush/roller?

Because that's what I did.
They said the ones made for cabinetry was the best.

 
Rep Power: 351

i used a high density foam roller. i post up DIY and pixs later.

White is right!

 
Rep Power: 180

Superb!
Gorgeous white paint, aggressive stance, nice aero and nice wheels.
This is definitely one of the best 01-03 coupes I've seen.

That's impressive paint work for a roller and a can, lol
