rice is Race Inspired Cosmetic Exterior. if ur car looks those race cars but isnt any faster than the car in stock trim, then its rice

yeh cz its so high but i dont think its rice. it only looks good on cobra r's i dont think it looks good on any other mustangs but thats my opinion. like the tiger racing stangs in my opinion arent really rice either just cz the "bodykits" on them are actually somewhat functional to the car...

I personally believe that any true purpose build aero piece or any proven functional piece is worth it on our cars. Atleast, they do something. Most rice wings wouldn't support 10 pounds of down force let alone the hundreds created by a well designed race wing. And lets not even talk about the ones that face the wrong direction, or connect with small adjustable erector set pieces.
You might think the person is stupid for buying a really nice wing, and that it won't matter to them. But as long as its a real race piece, you can't knock em too bad. Same goes for useful suspension pieces. Just don't put parts that are WAY above the use of the car on. You don't need 3" piping on a 2L engine unless its puting out 20lbs of boost.

Unrelated and offtopic but....

I totally mocked a ricer to his face today in traffic.

He had his window down and was to the left of me, revved his car and made his lil' turbo squeak.

So I revved my car and when I let off the gas I blew a full breath out of my mouth going "SSSHHhhhhhhh...." while making a funny face and shaking my head back and forth....

Then said mines bigger and drove off.....

I would have been nice but it was an 80s cavalier with about 4 different colors of primer and a huge wing.

I dont see any problem with a carbon fiber hood or trunk, they benefit the performance of the car and just because you have a CF hood and truck you dont have to have a cheesy ass body kit, im still considering both on my black SN95 with some anthracite deep dishes, I think it would look sexy
