" RICE.
Race Inspired Cosmetic Enhancements. (R.I.C.E.)Parts put on cars to make them look fast, when they have no internal tuning, and are actually slow as hell. Parts usually consist of excessivley angular bodykits, large rear spoilers, neon, sponsor stickers, chrome rims, fake "coffee can" exhaust tips, and loud, annoying paint jobs and/or vynils. Sometimes parts are do-it-yourself installed and are basically duct taped to the car. Most commonly known for being done to Honda Civics, but can also be done to slow domestic vehicles, such as a Chevy Cavalier, etc.

so basically anyone here who has done any mod that doesnt include the engine is a 'ricer'
lol am on the wrong forum but yea this guy seems pretty mad.....btw i like it lol i saw his car at the xmas meet and he knows i like it LOL

Default Seibon Carbon Fiber TS Style Hood

I bought this hood on Weds. Pretty Excited! Should be here in the middle of the week. Paid $630 shipped.

Default Installed Pics!!

It took about an hour to install. It should have been about 30 minutes but I spent half the time looking for a 10mm socket. No fitment problems at all. Didn't even have to adjust it. I just bolted it down, put the hood shocks on & attached the latch mechanism & it was ready.

you should paint the mesh to black so it won't stand out so much. Looks good.

I wonder what the hood would look like with just the side vents, nothing in the middle.

^ I'm with you. I like the side vents, but not crazy about the middle. I does look good over all though. Some times I wish I had a dark car so I could rock CF.
