i found a set of Momo T-2000 racing seats that look friggin sweet and i was wondering if i would be tripping the rice-fasntastic if i got those seats. Now i would get a non-rice colour (i was thinking solid black with yellow holes cause the black only comes with yellow holes) but is it still rice? Regardless i will still get them but i wanna know what by brothers would think.

Moding your car is a personal preference. If those seats say DconNavi on them...buy them. 
If it's true that we are here to help others, then what exactly are the others here for?

Ain't nothing wrong with em. I really would like a set of nicer/more supportive seats, but I can't justify the cost. The only way I would do em is if I could get the exact same pattern as the back seat so they don't stand out so much. And that will cost much more than I'm willing to spend. Or get the back seats covered in leather and get leather front seats. Still more than I'm willing to spend.
I really like the seats in the 95-97 SE, especially the leather. Never have gone looking for an interior though.

Really, you shouldn't worry about what people consider rice. Just modify your car because you enjoy it, and you are happy with the final product. As long as you aren't being creative just to follow the "in" crowd, I think you're pretty rice-free.

Man its your CAR!!!! There always somebody who doesn't like what you did to your car, but its yours and thats all there is to it.
the only thing I say is, "Do it tastefully and make sure you never end up on Beaterz.com"
I got seats and love them

Now that I look at em, they don't look adjustable. Go sit in them and make sure you're comfortable before you go laying the cash down.
I see em for $250 online....

That's my definition of rice, modding your car aesthetically to make it look faster.
