random ?

Has anyone ever considered making a camaro a ricer?
:banghead:

I don't think anyone on the forum has. I've seen billions of them on ebay though.

do they look good

on a third generation

That has to do with personal preference. I, personally, don't like the look of 'riced out' camaros.

rice should stay with the ricers like honda toyota and all of them and NOT GM!

it depends i think it could be very original i also think that if someone just crappilly put one together then it could very well be worthless. personally i want to attempt it while keeping the american muscle under the hood hidden from the other guys thinking my car looks funny.

Whatever you want to do.

why don't you just dent it and have fake rust painted on?

make it look like it's all crappy but have a killer engine lurking under the hood.

I actually haven't seen any riced out third generations. Only fourth gen.

You know when I made my first post I completely forgot my camaro had some rice flare (offset stripes). I didn't do it and I think it looks horrible but I am a forum member with a sorta ricer camaro. (I should probably be banned)

What are you planning on doing to it to make it look like a ricer? Goofy paint job? huge wing? roof scoop?

Well, I personally wouldn't ever disgrace a car that I think already looks beautiful from the factory. Sure you could throw a body kit and a ridiculously large spoiler on it, add some custom paint, throw some 20's on it, drop it 2 inches, and call it unique. But honestly.. what I consider to be unique. Is an old school car (I'm assuming yours is an 86), kept all original with a beast of motor under that hood that just screams American muscle. They're getting rarer and rarer as the years pass.. and soon, they'll be gone. If you really want to be different, then I'd say leave it alone, preserve it. Thats what will really make it unique, and that's what will make it stand out.

They do look good... on a third generation

:chair:

...Or we could (and I admit its a streach) destroy all ricers in a massive bonfire, crusify their creators and wipe their seed form the earth.:evillol:

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay ahead of you on that one. I'm even growing my hair out for a mullet.:icon16:



(Thats right, I just pulled 3 quotes with one post, try beating that with a stick)

Actually, my first 3rd gen was a near ultimate sleeper. It was a regular 305 coupe, no ground effects so I guess people thought it was either a 4 or 6 cyl, that needed new doors. So at a swap meet we found the doors and as a bonus, gournd effects from a Z28.

Now the car itself was black with the paint in poor shape. The purchased doors were red. Undesisve as to paint the doors or the rest of the car, I decided in my youthful wisdom to paint the drivers door (minus skirt) laqour black with a rattle can. Never heard of the concept of wet sanding at that piont so it looked like shit. Then, I left the passenger door red (with skirt) and hung it up. Add countless globs of improperly mixed bondo on the quarters and whamo, instant sleeper.

The motor was good, real good, and she flew and turned a few heads. :lol:

Anyway getting to the point, some members here have posted links to some cars (stripped of the glory of being called a Camaro IMO). Now, some of the ideas and work that went into these cars isn't bad like nice paint (color) and a few had some neat interior ideas, let's face it, 3rd gen interiors after time = boring.

Soooooooooooo, I guess to each their own, but for American cars, there has to be a limit. I every so often see this Grand Am that I want to make a citizens arrest on because it's rediculous, with these tiny 12 " looking rims, but yet look 20" wide, a skirt package (not painted to match of course) that sticks a foot of the cars body lines, one of those erector set wings, doofy looking light pods, and all topped of with a glob stinckers slapped on the fender that scream "if these don't tell you 'I'm cool, the sound of the hollowed out coffee can in the rear will". :disappoin

Ricer Camaro? Thats kind of an oxymoron. I thought the reason people bought Camaros and the like was not to drive ricers.

I prefer to have my cars look good, be fast, and not looked riced! Instead of spending the money on rice parts, spend it on new paint, nice rims (not 24"), and lots of motor. I buy a car because I like the looks, not because its cheap and now I need to make an ugly civic look like its a real car, if you have to have custom ground affects made to make the car look better "you bought the wrong car"! If you want to customize your car do it nice! You know something that will gain you respect, no lose it. Have the seats recovered in leather & put a nice design in it with another color that goes with the car, show off your paint job (not the stick on stripes), put chromeor polished aluminum rims on it (not hub caps), clean up the engine compartment, put a nice system in it that is hard to see, have it pinstriped to match the body lines of the car ... just think of what chip foose would do with the car ... those are the kinda cars that gain value, not lose it!

there's my :2cents:

if you want a ricer, shell out the $500 for a honda.

I look at 'ricer' as an attitude, not necessarily generated for a specific type of vehicle. Not all civics are rice and some American cars can be 'riced out'.

ive seen a good deal of riced out 3rd gens in new york....its the most horrific thing i have ever seen. Ive gone up to a few of them and just laughed in thier faces...but then, i realize its pointless...cuz they can never speak english and don't what the hell im laughing about. ever see a 3 foot high wing on a 3rd gen with chrome fender flares!?!?!? lol....man its halarious.
