LOL you've got to be kidding.... you guys dont want to admit it.. but that car is rice... just cause its a mondeo doesnt mean i should be praising it... moreover there are quite a few ricers lurking around here.. not pointing any fingers though.. cause you'll get your panties in a bunch..

ps. i appreciate the amount of work that went into that but its still rice
Those taillites look like something on the back of every 90's accord or civic around this area...so i say RICE to ur link. ____________________
As for the mondeo, i say it's hot as hell! the new lites give it a much cleaner look, the old lites gave it a huge, and i mean a HUGE lookin arse... besides ur in europe...makes sense to use euro-lites.

Just curious how do you define "Rice"? Dosent it refer to a vehicle with EXTREMELY tacky/tasteless mods that detract from it's appearance? I don't see how that applies to this car. It's VERY clean and sharp looking, with mostly stock bodywork.
Now the taillights I'll agree with you on, they're ricey. I do however think some of those "Euro" tailights (the carbon fiber ones) could look good on certain cars. 
Not flaming you here, but I think it's sad when someone who does a very sharp job on their car gets lumped into the trailer-trash-fart-can-stickers-and-wing-duct-tape "Rice" category.
