The banner is cool. Its 3:30am, so I'm hoping you've already put the stock hood vents back on
I think she's hot.
It's 7am Sunday. By now hopefully the vents are back to red before anybody see's them in the light! I'll meet ya half way Dave, I do like the banner! 3:30am Chad??? You need to come back to Hilton Head so we can pull the "ALL NIGHTER"!!!!The banner is cool. Its 3:30am, so I'm hoping you've already put the stock hood vents back on
I'm gonna +1 that and toss out some e-rep.My vote is step back, ignore us, and take a look at your car. If you think "damn, that's hot" then keep it; screw what people say. The world would be a boring place if every single car was the same.
I think you mean like the latest incarnation of the ZR-1.Another "rice" option; why not throw a "carbon fiber" appliqué" on the brake vents, a la the new Challenger? Who needs REAL carbon fiber when you have stickers?!
I know it is not listed, but no ricer is complete without neon under the car.

after all of the "new' upgrades your car should fit in pretty well with the local honda club.
i found this kinda interesting, and thought i would share.
RICER - definition.
(Ricer: from the latin word Ricarius meaning to **** at everything you attempt)
A person who makes unecessary modifications to their most often import car (hence the term "rice") to make it (mostly make it look) faster. The most common modifications are (but not limited to):
- Huge exhaust that serves no purpose but to make the car louder
- Large spoiler on the back that looks like something Boeing made for the 747
- Lots of after-market company stickers they don't have parts from, but must be cool
- Expensive rims that usually cost more than the car itself
- Bodykit to make the car appear lower, usually accented with chicken wire
- Clear tail lights and corner signals
- A "performace intake"- a tube that feeds cold air to their engine usually located in areas of excessive heat (behind or on top of the engine)
- Most of these riced cars (a.k.a. rice rockets or rice burners) are imports; Honda Civics, Accords, Integras, CRXs, RSXs, Del Sols Mitsubishi Eclipses, Lancers, Subaru Imprezas, however there are some domestics such as Chevrolet Caviliers, Dodge Neons, Ford Focus; small, slow, economy cars designed specifically to go slow. Please note that some Supras, Skylines, WRX's and other higher performance imports are designed to go fast, and are therfore not always considered rice. It really depends on the severity of the case.
The "ricer" attempts to make their car "performance" by adding the modifications listed above. These ricers are not confined to any one ethnic group or color, however different ethnic groups are known for certain styles.
Honda Civics with big spoilers and 4" exhaust tips are considered to be ricers.
this may be useful for further enhancements.
I know it is not listed, but no ricer is complete without neon under the car.
According to one online report, it stated that the roof and B-pillars are appliqué. (That's French for "sticker")Off topic:
Actually, the ZR1 makes extensive use of REAL carbon fiber, including the roof, hood, front spoiler, front fenders, side rocker panels and rear spoiler.
Dave - screw our opinions. Do you like it? If the answer to that is yes then that is all that matters.
If you like the look of white floor registers, here's an idea 4U..
