ONLY restriction?

Rice is most of the stuff you find at Auto Zone in the "performance" isle.

Look in the end it all comes down to one thing......Its your car! You do what makes YOU happy! PERIOD! If anyone wants to flame or bitch you tell them STFU till they start making YOUR car payments!

Whatever makes you happy is all that counts.

Rice is a matter of style for me. That's just me though. Regardless of what rice is to all the different people, since when did it become such a bad thing. There are way too many pussies complaining about having their car called rice, stop crying. If your car looks like **** ( in someone elses eyes ) and he says your car looks like a flaming bucket of ***, is that better than being called rice? Not in my book, rice is just another term to describe something you dont like or whatever. Its the insecure people that make rice such a big deal. It's just a ******* word. To the OP, your a ricer. Accept it.

your complaining about wtf someone said about your car if you like who cares. dont sit here and talk about what you think is 'rics' and what isnt.. you said it yourself: 'These forums were to post what people do to theire car's, and to let others know.' your the one being hipocritical. just think for a minute what your posting about and dont care what people think.. if you like go for it bro.. but honestly dont call people out after you decided that your mad about people doing it to you.

3. No tastefull mods, I.e. DOESNT FLOW, or look clean.
4. All show, no go

Of course there a many other's, just search google and you will find out, i will admitt i have some parts on my car that some people might consider rice, i.e my carbon fiber hood and trunk which i believe flows really well with my car and theme, and also my aam" 3inch exhaust with fart can which is getting changed out to a magnaflow muffler.
I agree with the first three, not the fourth one though. What about show cars? They’re all “rice”? People mod their cars for various reasons, not all mods are performance orientated.

I agree. Its because the word RICE is overused here. 99% of things are rice here.

So if a SRT-4 who is a show car came up to you and wanted to race, though he was stock, you’d say he was rice if he wanted to race for fun? I don’t agree. Just being mostly show doesn’t mean anything. Its a visual modification strategy.

Fact of the matter, there is a no defenition for what "rice" is. It's an ignorant word that stems from a word given to depict Asians in a negative fashion (in a racist manner).

Everyone will give their opinion, rice is this, rice is that, bla bla bla...honestly, does it even matter? You did what you did cause it's your car and thats what you wanted to do. If people have a problem with what you did, that's tough **** and they need to get over it or find another hobby. It's one thing to think to yourself "not my cup of tea" and another to use an ignorant word and then tell this person that this is what they feel about it.

The whole rice fascination will not go away just like ignorance won't go away. As long as we have ignorant and immature car enthusiasts, we will have this word being thrown around and used on a daily basis.

And I honestly could careless if people like like what I say about this topic...if you use this word to describe a car, you are car enthusiastly ignorant and you need to grow up and realize that this is a hobby for individuals but at the same time a hobby for everyone. If you can't get past your ego and realize that everyone likes different things about a car as far as looks, performance or whatever car wise, than you need to find another hobby.

And that's all I have to say about that (thanks Forest Gump for a great way to end a post)
As a responses to these, you should just start giving out links to your other topic about this.

^^^^^^^^^^^ That would be a mostly accurate since of how the term “rice” is supposed to be used.

^^^^People called one of our members with this car “rice” because he had a f-ing body kit and lambo doors.
Even though he has a CAI, cat-back, and pully system, etc. Lots of show with go IMO.

enough with this attitude about "if it doesnt make you go faster" bullshit.

Rice is crap mods that are obviously k-mart'ed unfinished or fake.

Keep in mind MOD doesnt always mean performance.

there are people who do things to customize their car to make it look better to them.
if its done PROPERLY and suits the car then that is NOT rice.

Rice is a stupid overused buzz word and makes you sound just as stupid as calling someone a "noob"
EXACTLLY.

Boosted_SS: That cobalt is rice in my eyes, now throw some sweet rims on it, peel off the graphics, and tint the windows, then you'd have a nice, clean car.

To me "RICE" is a set of fake spinners on a 95 rotted out cavy 4 door with a 5 inch exhaust tip clamped to a stock muffler . Ive actually seen this sitting in a walmart parking lot .

I agree whole heartedly. I see nothing in the least "rice" about it.

Just to set out my views, I disagree 200% with what is said here.

The rims are stock, I don’t see how that adds to being “rice“. And you just agreed that not everything has to performance. And you just used the word rice when you agreed that it was a stupid word to say. So you just contradicted what you supposedly agreed to.

I would like to know how it 1) how they are crap mods, 2) how they are Kmart, unfinished, or fake, and 3) how it doesn’t fit the car at all. The rear end is stock, the sides are custom and the front is a well made body kit, that all flows very well. And window tint isn’t necessary either for a car to look good.
