i rided out my cavy?? how? do you know what the word rice refers to? it means japanese car. my car is american made (in MI as a matter of fact) by an american company. you say its riced out cuz it has a kit, flashy paint, and a wing... that makes no sense... u dont like a kit and wing or nice paint, then i guess u hate this whole sport compact scene then. u can hate all you want, but i still love my cav. im american, i drive an american car, im proud. it has a kit and wing as do 99.9999% of cars in the sports compact scene. but cuz its domestic, its riced out? learn what the word means before you go throwing it around. i dont put type r stickers on my car if its not. i dont put n.o.s. stickers on if i dont have nitrous. i dont say i run 11's if i dont. i dont thing an aluminum wing adds 20 horse. what i do know is my car is nto rice cuz its got a kit and its a domestic

Imports get NO respect at the track so we usually don't give any back. I didn't get any respect from any domestic cars until my Integra was in the 12's.

Drive whatever the ---- you want and don't worry about what people say. If you really want people to respect our car, get a fast timeslip. This is the only way.

Import drivers just like to talk ---- on domestics becuase they fall apart after 50,000 miles when you can get a Honda with 300,000 and its "just breaking in and ready for boost"

let me rephrase...no all import drives...just the majority. and also. its not that i really care what people think of my car, its that im curious as to why they think what they do simply based on its makers origin.

P.S Do you see the irony in your bodykit designed by a "import" Japanese company for "import" cars and its on your domestic?.

Just wanted to point that out.

woa son, calm the ---- down there. There are maybe 3 cars I've seen my entire life that had anything "showy" on them that I would not call riced out. To me, that wing is rice, that paint job is rice. There isn't a standard definition for rice, so everyone has their own. Type R stickers on non type r cars is what I call "gay" one windshield wiper half way up the windshield is "gay" what you might simply call rice I call gay, what you would simply call nice I call rice. If it's not for speed then I don't give a ----.

And yes I'm a big damn hipocrit, I have some stickers on my car, but I don't think they make it faster.

no i dont. the kit is a design thats all... doesnt mean that deisgn was made for one car and one car only. thats why you cang et bomex for 20 diff cars out there...same with buddyclub, etc, etc. the kti on my car is made for a domestic (a cav) thats why it lines up and fits perfect. maybe the general shape wasnt thought up to go on a domestic, but the point is, body ktis arent designed to stay on one specific car...they are just designs in bumpers...

Then i would have to say you are "wheated" out. The body kit, hood, wing, and graphics belong on honda-tech and not here. we are quite a unique bunch of people here but you are jsut trying to start ----. we are all american but we are living in a single economy enviroment now (IE the whole world is in one massive economy) which leaves you saying your "american" fine and dandy. But i bet most of the parts on your car were made in other countries and put togheter here. Hell most of hte civic's, accord's, ETC are made on american soil. so they are as much american as your car is just designed in japan.. we really need to open our eyes a bit and see the real story that is happening now VS being an ignorant person.
