I seriously have never heard or read that before but it puts a whole new meaning to RICE and this car would indeed be rice by this Acronym.

This doesnt apply to actual functional enhancements does it?
 
I like the rims....thats about it. Lose the bodykit and tails
 
IMO, that front bumper is the ugliest one for these cars. If not for that, the neons and the future mods he listed, I wouldn't consider it rice. Maybe once he also does all the stuff Wes quoted, but not right now.

To me "rice" implies a certain lack of execution. I don't consider well built Hondas to be rice, this isn't all that far from that. However, if we find out the nitrous kit is just plumbed to a purge, I'll change my opinion...
 
This is what I would call 'clean rice' it's done nicely (no hack jobs) but it's still rice.

Doesnt have a 4g63 so not a dsm in my book.

I agree (says the guy with the NT 4g63 LOL)
 
If body kits are your thing I don't think it looks too bad. It was at least done pretty well. If you're one of those die-hard stock body types then, well ... it's just not your thing. I still wouldn't call it rice though. To me rice is badly done modifications, but that's just me.
 
Even the kit looks like crap. You can see so many waves in the fiberglass its ridiculous. Even for those that like body kits can see that this is not tastefully done.
 
Doesnt have a 4g63 so not a dsm in my book. Plus the 2f2f body is like a bullseye. Rice.

+1 for the effect spelled with an "A"

The non turbos are dsms, they where manufactured by diamond star. In my book they are like our little brothers, always getting picked on but we must still back them up.
 
I think bud should plastidip his car ;)
 
Yeah it's not a turbo car so it must be rice... Some of you guys kill me with comments like this. I'd rather drive that car, even with the ugly front bumper than half the rattle infested rust buckets on here. His car is painted and looks decent, except for the front bumper.

Kills me that you same guys talk trash on this but suck up to bullets car...

Oh yeah, I vote not rice
 
I like it. Honestly I hear way too much "that's rice" all over the place. If it's done tastefully and care and attention is put into it, it becomes a show car or at the very least, a car the driver wished it to be. I find the term overly used for anything that stands out. Call it what you will, but it's well done, I'd drive it (although I'd paint it another color).

+1 :hellyeah: :thumb:

P.s. I have the same rear bumper and skirts on my talon OMG

The front bumper looks as ugly as the rest. His car is painted & looks disgusting, super wavy all around, the driver side rear bumper has sum nasty mark near the top of the tire, & all around the door handle the paint is chipping off, right side skirt is chipping off, the paint it self is an ugly color & looks like it has metal flake. Now with the headlights,eyelids,Tails & chrome rims....its a Perfect recipe for RICE!!:toobad:

When other people see this car they might think its a fast DSM, then find out its only slow & ugly, which just makes all DSM look bad. I personally cant stand to see these things driving around, They need to be Saved LoL

seeing as you have a Stock Exterior im surprised u would vouch for such a thing.
