How in the hell is that in any way rice? Man some people here seem to think if its not a Subaru, and it is anything but OEM, it is rice.

A hint man, half the subies in the bay area are rice.

It isn't flat out, but it is borderline. Ebay headlights, eyelids, grille, and lip; none of which fit correctly. Those little fender marker things almost push it over. The Hide hood is an interesting touch...

Now, you want rice, anyone and I mean anyone who has cutouts on a street car, anyone who puts carbon fiber anything on a street car, and anyone who puts JDM anything on a USDM car.

now, THAT is rice.

*edit* and, anyone whos car looks like they drove down the pep boys isles with the crap magnet turned on high, and lastly, anyone who "rolls coal" or has stacks.

Car above looks like it went down the ebay aisle with crap magnets on, so it apparently would seem to fit your definition. Plus = Sentra and probably NOT an SER.

I do think stacks are pretty funny. I literally laughed out loud the first time I saw them on a truck on the street.

I disagree with JDM and CF though. Unless it is actually saving weight, CF is kind of not doing much, but can still look good. JDM parts are OK with me if done well, not just one or two random parts and then claiming "JDM YO".

Sooooo I was at wheel works today and the guy at the counter was talking about his car. He told me he had twin turbos plus a supercharger in the mazdaspeed 3. Lol. When I asked him where he got it tuned, he said he did it himself. And that he gave his parts to a shop in downtown to have it all installed for one flat fee.

Then I took a look outside at it later and everything was completely stock inside and outside. Not even a boost gauge was seen....
