Do a search in the Pics and Vids section for Rice and you should find it educational - also very entertaining!

Why do people always say use the search. I mean just think about it the time you put into saying use the search you could just have typed in what the person was looking for. Like in my case when ever I use the search it will find stuff, but won't tell me where to look or what, and how far back it is, and with a slow internet connection searching the past files sucks. Anyways to answer your question. I am sort of new to this term could anyone fill me in ? Ricing Out is mainly what the imported cars do. For instance the clear tailights, the fart mufflers, and all that other gay stuff that is going out of style really quick. Hope this gives you an answer to your question.

Rice is anything that you put on your car to make it look or sound faster than it is. Or a non-functional modification that is supposed to look like it is functional, like massive wings on a 100 hp 4 cylinder. Or completely gaudy aesthetic mods.

Rice can be on any make or model of vehicle.

Check out www.ricecop.com and other similar websites for a complete description.

I disagree with some ppl's term of "rice". Ppl say my car is rice because I got neons. Sorry but they are American made. Just because imports have them ppl consider them rice. mad

If you use some neons, that's not too ricey if it's done right. But if you have neons everywhere like on the license plate frame, the washer nozzles, inside, outside, on the tailpipe, then I think it's just plain overdoing it.

I just think rice is when parts are slapped onto a car just because it's "cool" at the time. Like putting a huge wing on a stock car is lame, or putting tons of ground effects onto a car with stock wheels. As long it's tastfully done, I don't consider it rice. However, I do think that any huge wing is gay.

I have 16 neons on my car. But they are all in good places. It looks professional instead of just slapped all over.

Just wanted to say that the lighted windshield wiper sprayers helped me out this winter. My sprayers are always frozen and i got some white ones to melt the ice! I dont use them for any other reason.

For some people, ricing out is used when someone does something to their car that they dont agree looks good...
