I say it's all up to the owner... If thats what you want to go for is an all out showcar then do it. H.R. Giger's artwork is amazing and to completely redo a car and have it resemble the same type of scheeme could be pretty wild. I'd be interested in seeing it when it's finished.

Re:showcar = rice?
 
the point is...
where the hell are all these "SHOWS"
a show for what, what is the point of going to these "shows" and what do u get out of these "shows"
and what do u get out of these "show car"

now answer all these questions.

edit:
Does a show car impress girls more than a fast car?
Do you like to get smoked by old ladies driving V6 camrys'?
Are you sure you wanted THAT MUCH attention?

if you want to show of your car just show off how powerful your engine is. Put all that money towards your engine, make it have 600+ horsepower, and show it off by beating vipers ;)

if your car is a "show car" and you know its not fast then

thats diffrent. it is still rice, but i guess "acceptable"


Rice is when people put wings, neons and body kits and

acutally belive that they gain some performace.

if the say/belive that their car is faster/performs better

from their blitz front bumper, invader back bumper, blAck

widow side skirts, the super duper triple decker mega ultra

gt wing and 6 exuast pans....THATS RICE


p.s. rice boys seem to get all the girls. must be the neons ::)

That's not rice. That's ignorance.

Rice is an attitude. Revving your engine at people, talking ---- on other people cars... it just happens to be that most kids who have the Rice attitude also drive a body kitted, neoned up car.

IMO modifications that do not add to the car's performance=rice. BUT... you can't really call a one-off "aliens style" interior/exterior rice, can you? More like, "art"?
thats exactly what i was thinking.

i was looking at the artistic side of showcars

ill get some composite sketches togeather and show you
prolly tomorrow...
or in a couple hours if im bored :D
