Same reason you don't grab brake rotor with your hands as soon as you pull into your garage...
I am not sure what you are getting at haha.

I was talking to Illa. I am curious like that.

Theres a reason why nobody ever did it before.
Lack of creativity?
It's been done plenty by the rice civics with purple glitter paint cruising around my town.

I've always been a fan of this car, remember when I got mine, typed mx3 in Google, this car came up. 9of10

*thought rice was, when you put sticker of performance parts on your car that are not on the car.
Ex. NOS, skunk, so on. :confused2:

It is. It's just grown so out of proportion because of some stock-obssessed guys that now they'll call any slight visual modification rice.

agreed... everyone here knows I'm not a fan of bodykits and I wish the spoiler and sideskirts and maybe the rims would go away but everything is CLEAN... maybe it is somewhat rice but this is still one of my favorites (right up there with colins mx3 which I believe he got the idea of the broom handles from this car).

I've seen this car online many times. He did a lot of cool work to it. Some of the things I'm not a fan of, but overall I think he did a good job.

I drive it all year long as long as theres no snow or rain on the ground. If theres rain or snow I take out the beast, my 2005 Sentra 1.8S. :mrgreen:

I'm thinking of getting an older Subaru Impreza 2.5RS though to take over DD/winter duties and leaving the RX7 for weekends only.

They are welded on, you add metal to the existing hood

I know everyone here has a different idea of what "clean" is and what is completely "rice". But I will say this, that car was put together. At least the body kit was molded and painted and not left white or blue. There is some fine work that went into that car, even if its not your style, you should at least appreciate the craftsmanship.
