now i am getting the car painted full metalic blue. the car is jacked up because im putting in a engine with a supercharger(already purchased).i will be pushin 250 horses.what i wanna kno is if i pulled up beside you with a true engine with super charger, metalic blue paint, nice riims, an no wing would you glance over a say hey look at that "Ricer". i dont wanna be considered a ricer. also do you guys have any suggestions for me.pls dont laugh at my light blue door lol.

Rice is an attitude, not a look. The Rice look comes after the rice attitude. And beauty is in the eye of the beholder, personally, as long as the paitjob is a full covered, and any body kit flows well/is installed properly/is painted etc...I think its ok...Personally, I dont like the body kit your using on that car, but thats just me.

hey cassies thanks for the comment. thats the best kit they had avalible an i waited 4 monthes for it i cant turn back now any how when i get it painted ct ill repost you up for the final outcome

I will reserve judgement on the kit till its all done. Paint will make a huge difference and the new wheels will be essential for it to look good. Anyhow I respect that you are doing something different here.

Yeah, when its all done, with some new wheels, it may look good. Like I said, not a HUGE fan of the body kit, but its your car, so who cares what other people think about it?

Good luck. I've had a couple geos. Currently own a tracker. They take a lot of flack, but there good cars. I've owned a prizm(corolla), metro(suzuki swift), and my current Tracker(suzuki sidekick), and they've all been pretty reliable. With some minor modifications(b13 turbo) that metro raped some pretty fast cars too once it gained traction. Sadly I lost it when I was smashed in the side by an eclipse.

i agree w/ cassie you can drive a totally "riced" out car , but not be a total ass (but maybe the person has no fashion sense) hah the "ricer" is a combination of poor visual taste, massive ego, and having the impression that visual mods increase performance.

Since you are actually concerned about whether or not people think you are a ricer then you are not a ricer.

However, that body kit screams rice. :2cents:

HUUUGE body kits make a car look like a cartoon IMO.

so your getting a body kit and some flashy paint job ....

I think this says it all.

It almost looks semi-Skyline-ish...



I can't lie, it doesn't...:rofl:

But really, during this point and stage in your progress, I really hope you don't drive it around. I can honestly see you catching a lot of crap from so many people. But, I think you when you have it completed, opinions will change. I can't say anything at this point, and I won't say anything at this point :).

Well, IMO, I would need to issue one of these to a car with that body kit:

i have no fart can exaust i got a flowmaster muffler the pipe from muffler an then a tip i have fabricated an welded that glows blue. as for lowering i plan on using corrolla racing suspension. have a true engine 250horses supercharged an tuned not just a 4cyclinder with exaust an headers an intake an the bg pipe an superman standing on the back with his arms standing out(lots of those here).like i said its a neat lil project for me ill keep you all updated.um what ya think about blue tint? i also plan on lambo doors, nos (already have that resulted in my new engine)i also plan on purging it.maybe neons but give me your opinions on neons.also the reason that kit look so big is because i havn not put it on yet i put it over the existing bumper just to see how it would look an what needs to be done. ill place the kit on an mold it after the engine gets ut in next week

Saved :) BTW, what is the penalty if your car is rice?....:lol:

Pedrito El Sucio here bashes in your windows with a rusty pipe. He then steals your body kit and wheels, and sells them to a drug lord so he can build a house. :p

I really don't know what to say.

Well, except to say that I don't know what to say.

You just made me choke on my tostada...

If your 250 hp prism spanks my ass in a street race, I will never call it rice.

sounds to me like a fast ass show car. im sure it will look nice and no it wont be ricer it will be show cause it doesnt have pointless bolt ons and a huge wing with no purpose just get her put together repost and youll get alot of changed opinions

i personally like how you're doing performance and body at the same time... it's definately after paint going to stand out. I don't think ur a ricer, and even better, if someone does, u'll be able to smoke them. imagine the looks on their faces

Personally, ... the car has an ugly body period. You sound like you have a definate handle on the power but I wouldnt bother with a body kit. Get a nice set of lightweight NON bling rims, and maybe a stock spoiler off a civic or somthing.

I wont say anything untill I get to see the finished project.

it will definitely be different. honestly i think it would be cooler to have a stock looking car(with some tastefully chosen rims, not chrome, maybe brushed aluminum) that runs like crazy. when you beat others, they'd be like "wow that stock geo was fast! i gotta get me one of them." tell people all you have is an intake, exhaust, and NAAAWWWSSSS. i gaurantee if you beat some ricers and tell them that a trend will catch on in your area :evillol:

on a side note, im going to print out like 20 of those "rice citations" and put them on cars in the student parkinglot tomorrow :iceslolan

where did u find the ricer citation anyway? id like to issue some myself. and as far as the body kit goes, i dont think its the best idea. i woulda saved my money to build something more than 250 hp. stock looking cars that fly are definitely the best. and geos rock lol. i had a storm 5 spd that i fabbed my own exhaust on and it was a pretty fun car.

right now if i saw it on the street id think rice, no question about it. but ur gettin a powerful engine and once you paint it, it might not look bad. you should de-badge it completely and shave it if you ask me.

debadging an shaving is da plan. the reason i got the kit is because the stock geo bumpers suck. the kit look big cause in the pic it not actually connected to the car but i wil keep you all updated

If your 250 hp prism spanks my ass in a street race, I will never call it rice.
agreed, if it spanks me i won't call it rice

I really don't know what to say.

Well, except to say that I don't know what to say.
Well said.

i dont know about your exhuast tip.

honestly i would call your car rice if i saw it.

if yuo can show some fast times with your car, you have my respect.
