Is it Me or is Being "Ricer" making a slow comeback??
In the course of a week or so, I've seen Miata's(the New one's), Honda's, 240sx,etc. etc. all equipped with Mild style body kits and large or double deck spoilers, or even the Aluminum Drifter Spoilers. Ive even seen a Copper looking bugeye done up pretty nicely! You guys know what Im talking about right Brandon, Troy, Roy,Shaun,Joe 
IMHO, I think they look very nice and well put together as everything flows well and nothing overwhelms the other pieces on the car(Maybe its the ricer in me!!LOL).

I have never really liked the term RICER. To me the term RICER is all in the eye of the beholder. I mean seriously is there a checklist that defines what RICER is? What appears to look good to me may seem like RICE to others but seriously who cares. I think using the word RICER tends to hide whatever insecurities one has on their own vehicle. Personally I will say what I like and don't like but in the end it is your vehicle do what you like.

LOL Ted, thats a good one!!
I just didnt know what other short stereotype word that is heavily related to the way the tuning scene was back in the early 90's with big spoilers, big bodykits, painted yellow calipers,etc.etc.. True though, like the saying goes, Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
