Something is considered "Ricey" to someone...... do want you want and don't listen to other people

Man, thats wild! Your car is your car. Why are you so concerned about what somebody else has to say or whether or not your car is ricey? Do what you want with your car, if somebody has something to say about it.... well you know. As long as you are the one paying for it..... do what you like.

He had a request, so I replied. I think it's a valid request too. I would like to know what people think. Especially if I was going to compete in a car show. Rice generally doesn't win trophies, so asking if somthing smells like rice or not is a good idea IMO.

Who cares what everybody thinks!!!!
Im so tired of hearing "rice", If everybody had the same shiat on their rides, there would be no individuality!
Be different! Stand out from the crowd!!!

LOL well I see so much rice stuff it just ruins cars these days. Yeah its their car and all but seriously if most people are like oh thats cool and all this they don't have the stuff to tell you to your face that the stuff is fugly. I like my car stock but with a hint of individualism but nothing to stand out too much. But just my $.02 if you really like it I say put it on but don't expect everyone to like it around you.

well.. i guess any honda would be considered "rice" the moment any aftermarket part is added. it's just one step closer to so-called "individualality". i'm not even sure if "rice" is an appropriate word. for example when i see someone with led washer nozzles, i simply say that its "g@y".. now thats the appropriate term.. but hey, thats just my opinion

i asked because i wanted some opinions on the car, and it's good, because i ahve the same opinion as some of you gusy other there the definition of "rice" and i wanted to see what else i miss. i got so sick of the altezzas, my dealer are now selling the civics with altezzas out of the dealership, when i was at the show in tampaland, i saw so many of us has latezzas, and every car at the show had altezzas, hector's car(supermex) with stock taillights actually looked original, that's why i got rid of mine, yes, like you said i shouldn't listen to what others think, but sometimes advice isn't going to hurt, either. around my town, you cna tell a car is driven by a kid, it's defined by 3 "unique" characteristics:

1. hood nozzle lights
2. stickers
3. altezzas

that's it! those 3 things are on all different cars, domestic, import, bikes, whatevereveryone around here think they are a racer once they have those 3 things, it's not even original anymore, this town suck!

Very well put that is so true now a days, yeah rice is out of hand and people think they have to do all this and they will be in but thing is you have to do what you want and not follow what everyone is else is doing. Guess style is out and rice is the thing on the streets now. Which is fine with me I like the way my car is looking. Such a good speech WOW can't add much to it
