your blind, that car is rice to the bone.
im getting sick of this...
Rice - Race Inspired Cosmetic Enhancements. (R.I.C.E.)Parts put on cars to make them look fast, when they have no internal tuning, and are actually slow as hell. Parts usually consist of excessivley angular bodykits, large rear spoilers, neon, sponsor stickers, chrome rims, fake "coffee can" exhaust tips, and loud, annoying paint jobs and/or vynils. Sometimes parts are do-it-yourself installed and are basically duct taped to the car. Most commonly known for being done to Honda Civics, but can also be done to slow domestic vehicles, such as a Chevy Cavalier, etc.
Can someone PLEASE tell me how this car is a rice mobile? I mean, according to the terminology that you guys are using, this means that hector's car was a "Pile of rice" people will disagree with me by saying "no, he put a lot of work into that car" yeah, so did my friend andrey. In fact, Andrey has more parts into that civic then Hector had into his S/C contour. Dont get me wrong, I would take that S/C Zetec ATX tour over a Turbo honda civic ATX, but the principle still remains. You guys are calling it rice for the soul reason that its a honda civic. My friend bought that civic and has done NO asthetic modifications to it in the year and a half that he has owned it. In fact, he made it less rice. He bought that car with a totaly ghetto suspension, stock struts and cut springs in the front. First thing he bought for that car is a set of drop zone struts and springs. He then bought new tires. After that he ordered an AEM fuel rail, skunk2 manifold, 68mm throttle body, Tsudo exhaust, Vortech FMU, and to top it off the Apexi P-18 Turbo (thats the exact setup). The tail lights a friend gave him free, and he didnt want to insult his friend by selling them and/or not putting them on. He JUST installed them and doesnt know if he likes them at all. I should convince him to tint them...
