Damn that's wide! I like it but I'd probably would have to see it in a solid color without all those damn decals before I made a decision. All that vinyl really takes away from the appearance of the car, I know they're sponsored and all but I'd still would like to see it without them(stickers).

Well, it went from looking like a small G35 with the front of a Volvo and headlights of a BMW and lines of a Honda.............to a mini RX-8 body with MR2 rear side scoops and front side scoops like a Tiburon.
The upper grill shoulda been changed with the rest of the front.
It's a little too much for such a small car, but I kinda like it. The wheels are sweet.

Headlights rock. The wheels are ok. I don't like vinyl (just a bunch of stickers to me) and really prefer solid paint schemes. My problem with the body kits is that they take away from the original look... and if you actually drive the car, they look like hell in a couple of years. I see so many cars with body kits that are sagging and cracked. Fast and the Furious :rofl:
But, whoever built it did a damn good job ( other than those crappy zip tie looking things on the front) It looks neat, just not my kind of thing. I like clean looking... and fast :-)

I did not find humor in it because I did not find it to be funny. Saying that someones car is rice is not offensive if it is the truth, and I will continue to call peoples car rice if in my opinion it is the truth. (By the way if you look at my first post here, you will see that I never actually called this car rice, i was merely replying to someone elses post) You cant link the adjective rice to one culture. Rice is a disease that has effected every type of culture/ethnicity that we have in the US. The fact that you believe your car is an extension of you is a completely different story. Most people including myself dont feel the same about a car.

This is one of the better kits I've seen put on the tC thus far, besides the KIT widebody. But this is definitely a trailer queen. Not for those of you with a small pocket book. This one looks just as labor intensive as the other WBK's.
Some of you have a very weird understanding of the term "ricey"...somewhere from its inception to the present use of the word...it has been misconstrued. But to each his own.
If AIT's WBK is "ricey" to those of you...then for the love of GOD, what in the hell do you call this disorder??? :doh:

Ok Ok... enough guys. The big reason that stuff like that came to be called rice is the way rice is used in many foods. Rice is used in many foods as a filler. And since people started adding non-functional filler mods ( big wings and fart can exhaust on slow ___ cars) and the fact that they were added on Japaneese cars... the name rice stuck. It describes all those useless mods that people throw on to make their car look like a race car. It has nothing to do with bashing someones culture. There is nothing worse than people making everything into some type of cultural assault when it is not. Do I like the body kit? Not at all. But if the guy who owns it likes it then good for him.
