Obviously I've hit a nerve and this is exactly what I meant when I said this thread has the potential to get out of hand. Relax.
Yeah I guess you did hit a nerve...

for the record, i think it's silly to spend money on jdm gauges, coin trays, etc., or spend 3x the amount of $$ on something, just because it's JDM.

Riced out cars are the best platform to build a perfect sleeper. Imagine pulling up to an Civic or Integra with Altezza Lights, Big a$$ wing, Loug huge fart cans, primered or bright ugly paint, Big ol Rims, Painted Drums/Calipers, Decals and Stickers everywhere. YOu sit and look over and laugh, the lights turn green, and hes GONE.

Then again you are wasting money on ugly modifications.

Actually, Rice out cars seem to be on sale for way cheaper than stock cars are now on autotrader. You can get a Stock Integra for about 5k with 80k miles, or you can get one for 3k all riced out.

JDM is just the most expensive form of rice in my oppinion, unless it is performance related, or serves a better purpose than what you have now..not just too look cool. but its not up to me.. people do what they want with thier cars and their money..

the car still looks like ass though. why not keep it stock looking with OEM parts and then smoke the shit out of the riced out car.

and when the riced out car is for 3k, you know it has been beaten to shit and not taken care of so it is better to spend the extra for the good car.


so you are wrong, riced out cars are not a good platform at all to build a sleeper

Sure some JDM parts are cosmetic related, but also JDM puts out better performance parts then the US. So you can't really say JDM is rice, the dyno's don't lie.
