I HAVE A QUESTION FOR 'RICER HATERS'

[Sammich]

I WAS LOOKING AT A PIC OF A NICE CIVIC AND THOUGHT..MAN THAT CAR IS REALLY CLEAN AND...SIMPLE, THEN THOUGHT, WAS THE CLEAN AND SIMPLE LOOK DERIVED FROM BROKE BALLERS AS MYSELF, OR IS IT JUST OUTRIGHT HATE FOR NASTY BODYKITS AND LOUD PAINT JOBS?

[ironchef]

Why aren't you still banned?

[Ed]

it's still a civic, that makes you a ricer automatically.

MY DEFINITION

[AirMax95]

I can agree with that......which leads me to my next question: WTF is a "clean" car? Why do people always post a beat up honda, acura, toyo, etc and people call it clean? Clean where, how, WTF?????

And to answer your OP, clean and simple is a combo of limited budget and taste. Ugly is ugly, no matter how you slice it.

[BKgen®]

lawl i got a friend who thinks that ALL imports from Asia are rice... definitely not the definition of rice

i agree.

i see a bunch of these POS hondas on here, spray painted hood, rims, or some other rice bs... and because it is lowered and has a faily nice set of rims, everyone is like, "clean."

So if it has a nasty ugly body kits, but is actually fast/quick, is it just ugly :thinking:

I want to properly describe cars when I see them, thats all. I have been around the import scence for about 10yrs now, and still get confused, lol!

X2 I'M CONFUSED AS FAR AS THAT TOO...WHEN I SEE THAT COMBO AS HIGHLIGHTED...I SAY THATS ONE UGLY CAR...

[BKgen®]

IMO, "clean" denotes something worthy of a showroom floor. Straight body w/good paint, nice interior, clean wheels/etc and whatnot...

an S13 with mismatched wheels and unpainted bumpers (no matter how good the fitment is) is not clean IMHO.

[Ed]

no, just in general. evans at least has some taste (not my kind of taste) but it was nicely done, just like DO's. i mean just the flat black hoods, or shit, the flat black spray painted cars, some people go as far as doing the whole car.

generally, people who own faster cars know better, but there are a few outcasts who chose to still go the rice way.

and yes, if it's got an ugly body kit, its rice.

YEA I AGREE...I JUST SAY, 'CAR HAS GOOD POTENTIAL' OR 'NICE CAR', WITH THE THOUGHT OF JUST NEEDING PAINT. SOMEONE POSTED A 240 THAT THEY DID ALL THE BODY WORK MINUS PAINT, EVERYTHING WAS MISMATCHED AS FAR AS PAINT..ALL IT NEEDED WAS A PAINT JOB TO BE COMPLETE, AND I WAS LIKE YEA...CAR IS GONA BE AWESOME, BUT IT WASNT CLEAN

People buy those $300 ebay body kits all day long. They aren't going out of business, just downgrading and making due, lol.

Lack of funds will ALWAYS compell some people to take shortcuts to achieve "greatness". Sad but true.

I'd rather give them the definition and tips on how to improve :lmfao:

Na, in not that kinda guy. I wouldnt publicly embarass someone unless they asked for it.

[J-ROCK]

alot of these people who we call "ricers" have alot of money tied up in their cars but i dont see where! lol

[Catnip]

IS THAT ON A STRAIGHT AWAY OR CORNERS?

Sex and rape are two different things... lol

[AirMax95]

lol true true! now are you "Rice" if you have a system in your honda?

[Sammich]

lol true true! now are you "Rice" if you have a system in your honda?

no

[AirMax95]

lol true true! now are you "Rice" if you have a system in your honda?

No, but if said system is comprised of home audio components......you get the point!

[J-ROCK]

no

alright just making sure before i go call my neighbor a ricer lol:lmfao:

[J-ROCK]

No, but if said system is comprised of home audio components......you get the point!

lol i actually know someone whose whole car was composed of home audio lol

[Sammich]

lol i actually know someone whose whole car was composed of home audio lol

me too lol

[J-ROCK]

me too lol

the sad part is that it sounded good for wut it was!

[redrumracer]

i think its the overall way the car is presented imo. i think a car CAN have a body kit and not be ricer and still look good. then there is the way the owner represents the car, a completely stock car can be rice if the owner has that mentality that he is going to do ricer shit.

Yeah, but his Miata is badass. Even if it had the body kit, minus the mods, it would not be considered rice. Below is rice, by our definition :D

Clean? This is clean. Nice wheels, lowered, but not TOO much, tasteful tint, etc. However, shaving the door handles, throwing on fake HIDs, stickers, lowered so that your camber is at -2.5, rear wings, etc, is just too much.

[Sammich]

i have shaved door handles and they SUCK, the are not practical in any way for a dd, maybe on a second car but not a dd. now everything else shaved is a big plus in my book, nice and clean. but not so much on the molding of bumpers, although functional via smoother, not practical.
