I agree with other saying this car is not rice... Maybe not your preference but far from rice.

Rice is having the shock value but with no purpose. This car has everything needed to back up the color choice. This car is a show car meant to get attention, so that color I believe suits it in doing that.

With all the mods he has all parts are high quality and serve a purpose. He has a real bbk, not caliper covers.His car looks fast and If you look at his motor, you know that it is fast.

Rice is having the parts, but not being able to back it up. His car is the opposite.

Best example is if I had a lambo, Id put under glow on it. Rice? not really, its a daym lambo, who cares.

You know what, I've had my Shine kit for about 7 or 8 months and I already want another kit already and the kit that I want now is a Vertex Ridge Widebody.

It really depends on my on how my career plans pan out so it is not going to happen anytime soon.
The Vertex is one of my favorites kits. And the car is well done for the taste of the owner.. Bottom line is whatever make the individual happiest. Cause at the end of the day it's their car.. But the 99% statement is saying a bit much.. Maybe 90% is a better number

Finally - that's the shot I wanted to see.

Ever thought of blacking out the headlights? I think it would fit the aggressive theme of this car quite nicely.

Quality parts does not exclude it from being rice.

Its hideous, grotesque and completely rapes the essence of the SC by adding exaggerated speeeed holes and tacky non-functioning diffusers and widened body panels that really does not sit nicely with the body lines. Its a Speed / Drift Inspired Cosmetic Enhancement, otherwords; rice (or dice since that's what the new generation of ricers are doing now).

I've seen a lot of SCs done right, and baller body kits and stupid paint jobs are not the part of the formula, but im talking in a forum full of car owners that would absolutely nut their pants for that kind of garbage.
