at the risk of offending some people I am of the opinion that puting an STI spioler on a regular WRX is no different than puting Type-R badges on you run of the mill RSX, Integra, NSX or what ever else it may be.
It is frequesntly done in concert with say STI badges and look alike wheel...
RICE
If we mock honda owners for it we should acknowledge it in our selves.

Yeah, but that's just trying to enhance the look of a plain car. Not pass it off as something it isn't. I don't think a pink Subaru badge makes my car rice. And I'm not trying to fool anyone into thinking it's an STI. I generally don't think o.e. parts count as rice, unless they are useless or way overdone.

What about U.S. trucks? We need a new derogatory term for those...
Here in Phoenix I see tons of pickup trucks with big wheels, "whale tale" spoilers (ON A TRUCK, YES), altezza rear lights, big chrome bolt-ons for the exhaust, fiberglass bed caps and big whip antennas. Lower the truck, invert the rims and add a fake hood scoop and you have the USA version of the "ricer"...
...hmm, what should we call them? "beef-eaters?" "mothertruckers?"...

Wow, you are a bunch of freakin idiots! We've been begging to get true performance cars here in the states for years and now you're calling it rice??? I guess being anti-rice is the new trendy bandwagon huh? STi is a parts manufacturer owned by Subaru... like Mopar, Nismo, Mugen... to say that putting STi parts on a non-STi is the same as rebadging a non-Type-R model Honda is asinine. Prodrive121 you're a tool. I can't believe the number of Subaru owners *****ing and moaning about cars that old-schoolers (like myself) fought so damn hard to get. All this slamming on the SR-T neon, ha! It is a faster car than the WRX both in a straight line and in handling plus it will beat a stock STi from a roll... Dodge beat us, get over it. To those that say the Neon is a POS, you've never followed SCCA or NASA auto-x/road racing have you? The Neon is always at the head of the pack, as is the Protege. I seriously think you folks need to do your freaking homework before you put your foot in your mouths any more. Ohhhh, the WRX is ugly, ohhh the STi's badges are pink ewwww, get a grip people. Keep this up and we'll be left with L-models, HF civics, etc.

Thank you for your hard work and dedication in designing enginering and building the STI, EVo, and WRX so the they can be sold in the us.
Calm down man its an opinion I would like to see though exactly how it is seperate type-R and sti
Honda makes legit type R people buy the badges and wheels to make there regular accord or civic look like a type r
If you have a regular WRX and you buy sti badges, wheels, and wing, not manifolds coilovers etc. to make it look like the 300/300 car it is not I think its the same you think im wrong thats ok
dont call people names its rude, it proves nothing dont threaten me to do my homework either because you have opinions they are opinions not facts.
