UHG you guys no, green is the most stereotypical ricer color you can go for. that thing would look MILES better with gunmetal rims. If you have not noticed already, other people on the road look at you and think "------- ricer." Do you want to perpetuate that stereotype? I wouldn't have thought so because if I put that much work into a car I would not want that to be the first thing running through people's heads.

ya i know the bay needs to be cleaned. thats usually one of the main things i do when i go to the car wash but for some reason i havent yet w/ this car...
and as far as green being the most stereotypical ricer color? dont think so. im sure red and yellow (stickers) come WAY before that. or even gun metal for that matter. the import scene is all about being different. why would anybody think "ricer" when they see my car? i dont have a bodykit, big wheels, neons, big *** red racing seats, stickers on my car of ---- i dont have, or a big "fart can" exhaust (sraight d/p) . maybe its just me but you seem to care WAY to much about what people think about your car. ive always been the type of person who likes the clean and simple look w/ a touch of color. i know theres a bunch of ppl that dont like my wheels but i get alot of complements on my car/wheels. even when ppl see me w/out my car they always ask "arent you that guy w/ the fast crx with green wheels??" lol. but anyways, i do take in some of ppl's criticism but im always gonna do my own thing to stand out, to a certain extent.
but i am thinking about stripping the green off and changing the color....maybe pink or purple.
