Rice
Just something I've noticed...
A lot of the new ideas coming into the org get stamped out as rice...
Rice this rice that, since when isn't it just being original??
Just my $0.02

I think the board is very correct in labeling certain things rice and certain things original or creative.
Just disagree with the statement a little, that's all...

I saw it last week on Francis Lewis Blvd... in fact, a 5th gen member, Toylet902 ran against a Civic that had rims in the back and steelies in front.

I guess I will have to reword my statement...
I said a lot, but after looking back, there isn't a lot of new ideas being claimed as rice.
After reading the hood scoop thread:
http://forums.maxima.org/showthread....threadid=91893
It just got to me that "rice" is being thrown around everywhere. Search the word rice and there are over 1600 threads regarding "rice".
A functional hood scoop would be cool to have, not the best idea but at least it's something new.
The washer lights, pardon clee, I like, I have them on with my headlights. Not many people around here have them, I was one of the first. Ricey because everybody has them? I didn't know that. Another idea = rice.
The Z3 fenders have been called rice also. Why?
Another new idea for the maxima.
The "Maxima" door sill panels = ricey to some. Why? Because it's indiglo? All those damn hondas have indiglos too.
Pardon my opinion here, just something I noticed. Granted some of the products for cars are taking it too far, but you can't criticize new ideas and expect new ideas to keep coming.

In fact, their new thing now is to have two black steel wheels in the front and the rear is all rimmed up with 16's or 17's, now I REALLY don't get that ****.

I saw a Hon-duh the other day like that, and figured maybe the guy just didn't have the money for the other 2, or maybe he bent them.
But 5 minutes later, I saw another one!
What's the point? Does it help them lighten up for racing or something?

Um, Bay Area, we got you all beat! Anyway, when i hear the word rice, I dont think of it in a negative way. To me, it is a car that has a lot of money put into it and looks cool. If its done right, then I have no problem with a car being rice. I think of it as more of a compliment than something negative. So, if people say that a car is rice, its probably either cause theyre jealous or its just not thier thing. I say, dont make fun of someones hobby or whatever, just because you dont like it. Does that make sense?

I had 15s on the front and 17s on the back of my car for a month. I put the 15s on to go to the track because they ARE lighter, and when putting them on I noticed I had belts showing in the front on the 17s. So the 15s stayed on (they are my winter wheels) and I didn't bother to change the rears because I was lazy, not because I am a ricer. There's a difference.

Pardon me if I'm incorrect here, but isn't rice short for rice-rocket.
I always thought it was a term for a car that has a lot of cheap, un-useful mods (i.e. stickers, exhaust tips, 15" wheels or hubs)
I usually reserve that term for screwed up little Toyotas and Metro-ish looking cars. But if you ever see a civic (or any car for that matter) with a bunch of cheap show and no go...then it's a ricer baby!
