Ok, I have an idea as to how I want my car to look. But I want to know whether you would think it was too much rice. Note, I have an automatic '94 ST.

Invader Bodykit <-stock spoiler, look at my profile
Z3 Fenders
Paint the car blue
clear turns with blue lights
clear sidemarkers
blue underbody neons
17in silver O.Z. Superleggera

Would that be too ricey for my car? I have an exhaust and I might order a CAI from the guy in the for sale forum that is making them. Now remember <-automatic = all show, no go.

Would you laugh at me if you saw my go by or would you be like, man that car is bad ass...

i would lose the z3 fenders... thats pretty much how my car is gonna be (with the z3 fenders), only becuase both my fenders are damaged, and z3's are a cheap replacement... and i believe clear turns with blue bulbs will get you pulled over and ticketed....

and i know what you mean shid... honda rice is big aluminum wing\altezza's\decals\muffler....

I'm leaving my stock spoiler on and the rims until I get enough to get the OZ's later on. It shouldn't look that bad. I dunno about the Z3 fenders yet, if it costs too much I just might keep them off. Oh and the blue turn signals, the cops down here are real slow, their too busy eating donuts. I want a nice dark blue color, not Si Blue or Subaru Blue, but something that will look good, it'll just be darker than normal blue.

Midnight Blue on Mustangs, and 'Out of the Blue' that is seen on Escalades and Corvette Z06's would be my choices. They're all a very similar shade of dark but bright blue.

RICE is more of an attitude than how your car looks.

That guy in the lowered 1991 civic DX with a black hood (Not carbon fiber) , A universal muffler 2 rims on the back and stock hubcabs on the front, altezza's 2 lightning audio walmart subs with HONDA in oriental letters accross his windshield that thinks he can WHIP ANY CARS ASSSSSS is RICE RICE RICE

As long as your car is done right, nothing is hanging off, who cares whats under the hood if you just want a nice looking car. If people call it rice say "hey, I know my car is slow, but it looks badass" and they will back off. People give modding exteriors a bad name by overdoing it and thinking it adds HP.

Also simple-minded domestic fanboys call anything that doesnt have an american v8 in it rice.

do what you want, I think it will look nice, good luck and post pics when its done smile.gif

i'd say drop the kit and the neons. neons are most definately rice, imo.

the more subtle, the more class.

Neons,stickers altezzas, and big wings are my pet peeves. I saw some guy who put 3 different tire manufacturers stickers on his car, and he had stock rims.

well you can call me rice or what ever I like moding the exterior of my car but once that is done i will move to swaping engines or adding a turbo but for now my car looks nice and still gets great gas milage. I dont have to race every kid who revs at me at a stop light when they see my car. rolleyes.gif so mod the engine or the interior or exterior just do what you want cause in the end your the one driving the car

honestly if u have a slow car like an ST, if you're not gonna go all out with performance with a t/c, s/c or swap, i dont see really what the point is of just gettin an intake and exhaust. if u cant afford show AND go, and u want both, then i just think u picked the wrong car to rock...but this is just my opinion.

I dont think ALL SHOW NO GO really means rice, because a fast car can also be riced out.
