I agree, but if you want to keep up with this thread, you have to post more often, and quicker.

yes it is rice but anything you do for your car cosmetically is. looks like you need an education on rice so here we go

RICE = RACE INSPIRED COSMETIC ENHANCEMENT

any sticker you have on your car, whether you're representing a company or a club is rice.

when you tint your windows? - rice
when you lower your car because it looks better - rice
when you put rims on your car because they look good - rice
when you paint your grilles - rice

my point is this..... everything you do is rice, unless it adds value. To me, value is in the aesthetic appeal. thus i am a ricer. you may not enjoy what i do to my car but frankly i don't give a fuck. i like my car and i will represent people who help me out.

It's all we have.

Have you seen the Lions lately? The Big 3? The Chauncey-Billupsless Pistons? The Tigers who had a cast of All-Stars and still finished behind the Royals?

Please let us have something.

you know what I meant...no need to be hostile dude jeez...

there is a fundamental difference between 50 sponsor stickers on a street car that doesn't even have most of the mods to support them and one small club sticker on the glass.

You know what though? No one wants to burn Detroit straight off the map more than the people that live in the area....

And Ann Arbor is just a bunch of tree-hugging hippie scum.... Good education, but hippie shit for sure.
