They make a very very phat one-piece headlight. They look really really good


No you're not a ricer.... I'm not too much of fan of blitz body styling but whatever, to each his own.

 

[buzzbombtom]

thanks ummmm the pics i dont have because my car in
MIA so it will be a while next tues before i can get them hell yeah i like them they fit nice looks way more clean and the only problems i have are that one has moisture in it and adjusting the beams on the driver side, the washer fluid and other stuff is in the way. but looks good and brighter than my stock!!

 

[fasteddy]

the only thing i see that would make me think ricer is the white dash and door accents...i've just never been a fan of that kind of stuff

 

[buzzbombtom]

nor me when i got the car some kid had done it to the car i think that im going to pressure wash them so they are black again

 

[Holly Golightly]

HA anyone who said that you're a ricer can shove it up their ass cause they dont know what they're talking about

 

[Sound Streamin']

Ricers are people who put colored honda symbols, chrome wheel covers, and a huge ass double shelf wings on their otherwise stock DX. Don't forget the 6inch tip.

Although everyone has their own opinion on what rice is and what it isn't - it's probably inevitable this thread could turn into one big argument. You don't seem to have your own definition of what rice is and instead of worrying about what others think, you should worry about what you think.

Mine is simple - rice mods are modifications that don't make a car perform better for the most part. There are some that I don't mind to an extent, for example - I think 18 inch rims on a Civic... any Civic, is pointless cuz a goped would be faster. However, for the EP3 I think that size wheel is the only size that successfully fills the wheel gap on the new Si. It's not functional but it does not make the car look like it's swallowing up the wheels.

You're probably not gonna get a solid answer whether your car is rice or not cuz everyone is different about rice. Some people may say, "You're fine as long as you keep that aluminum wing off." Or that you haven't overdone yourself. Some people might be like me and see a body kit that tries too hard and will simply label it rice. Some people might be like, "It's riced out, but at least it's not slow." But whatever.

I don't think body kits are bad, I just think most of them are ugly and ridiculous. They also try to convince the buyer that they'll stand out from other cars, but fail when they pull up to the next car that tries to accomplish the same goal.

TYC is simply rice because they make altezzas (that just happen to be crap quality) and crap-quality projectors with unconcentrated beam patterns that use crappy bulbs and end up fogging up horribly. Plus I think they are ugly.

It's all a matter of opinion. I'm not trying to convince everyone what I think is rice or what isn't cuz I could care less what everyone else thinks if they happen to be against me.

 

[Shiznit]

the fact that you had to ask us if you are a ricer or not makes you a ricer. oh and the fact that you have a body kit

 

[POWEREDbyVTEC]

i consider cars w/ body kits
'rice"

 

[Holly Golightly]
