Rice to me would be if you used more than one color in the paint job. Yours is solid, and it looks nice in my opinion. But remember, Red is the color thats pulled over most.

Re: Re: 97 eclipse spyder Pic/nice or rice?

Honestly, if you wanna be happy with it, do what YOU want. Otherwise, you won't be happy. If you do what everyone else does or likes, you might not like it. The only thing i could say about the 19's though is they'll probably rub unless you trimmed your wheel wells. I have chrome wipers, chrome washers, hopefully chrome 18's soon, and changing my emblem to the 3g's chrome one. I like the gunmetal/chrome look on my car, but that's just what i like.

Gunmetal rims on your car would look awesome, you might want to stick to 18's the 19's could give you problems.

As for you two, the man asked us for his opinion therefor I tell him what I do and do not like about his car as well as any ideas that I might have, he doesn't have to like my opinion but he did ask for it.

In the end he only does what he wants and what he can afford to do not what anyone tells him.

I never there was anything wrong with giving your opinions, i gave mine. I was replying to SpyderEclipseGst's "gunna run 19's black gunmetal no?" statement. If you took any offense to that, Crankwalk, you shouldn't have, and it isn't your place to talk for him like that, either.

thanks fellas i appreciate your opinions. I know ill get a few negative comments, but i made this thread expecting to. So hey its just a rice/or nice opinion poll basically. All the extra comments are welcome. I like the debates and what others would do or not do. like yeah the chrome whipers are commin off. Kinda rice now that i think of it..as well as the rims... ALOT of offers off the street for my rims.. i think ima take the higest bidder now that i can get my 19 gun metals for cheap. Just bent the back walls for room. Pics will come as followed. but keep the comments comming.

Ditch the wipers, but keep the rims [especially ditch the wipers if you're getting non-chromed rims !]

I'd roll in that.

Though I'm not feeling the rims or the wipers.
